I've recently come into a BLR in my favorite 270 win.
I intend to keep this caliber but would like to keep the original oem barrel untouched and get a 'replacement' threaded and installed.
I've been reading everything from 'it can't be done' to 'its simple but delicate' due to the aluminum receiver and lever action.
I'm not afraid of doing the work as I have rebarrelled my old R700 CDL - but does anyone sell an action wrench etc that fits the newer BLR and secures then such that torque doesn't cause problems etc...?
I am intending to have this checked over by my local GS (or done if it's really that delicate) but want to gather more info.
