What's it take to put a new barrel on a target 6.5cm?

Not necessarily true anymore, plenty of nutted options available for the 700s and options for the others as well.

Carbon wrapped barrels are also pretty common now, every major offers a model in carbon i believe (tho ill admit, ive made no study of the mater.)


Second to last 700 i assembled used a prefit Christensen carbon barrel. Only specialized tools i used were the reamer and headspace gauges.

Maybe I am a purist or something but a 700 with a barrel nut just doesn't seem right to me. Now it is functionally fine for sure....
