Can anyone tell me whether a factory barrel from a t3 will fit onto a m595 action?

Drop Baldie at Valkyrie Rifles an Email if he doesn't know no one will :-)

Tenon is the same but you might need the headspace adjusted due to a couple of thou differences between rifles. If you want the writing on the barrel to line up you will have to adjust the tennon/chamber length.

Cheers gents. I was just musing on a cost effective way to replace the barrel on my 243 when the time comes.

Commission a riflesmith to replace the barrel with a quality replacement.

 

By the time one has messed about with a take off barrel that may be shot out, poorly chambered, requires headspacing (re chambering), timing - setting it so the factory markings are in the right place,,,,,,,

 

Not worth the hassle

 

 

Buy a new barrel; get the work done by someone with provenance and you'll be happy.
