Hey y'all
I inherited a enfield several years ago. it's mismatched parts (action & barrel winchester, rest remington) gun with sporterized stock. I want to rechamber it for 300 win mag.
As I see it my project has the following steps (not in order)
mill off ears
drill & tap for scope
rechamber barrel
recrown
replace triggeer
replace follower
replace stock
mount scope.
Now, my question is what must I farm out to a gunsmith? I'm thinking the first 4, unless I fina a lathe mill at a resonable price.
opinions?
and yes I know I could buy a new rifle for what this project will cost. thats not a factor here.
