[QUOTE="DONTSTROKEME, post: 156417, member: 6008"] Personally I would go with the stock first and see how the barrel shoots and then if you change your mind on the caliber you can change when you rebarrel. However if you barrel first then you would only have to bed the gun once....but I did mine myself and it isn't the prettiest but it worked. But I belive that if you rebarreled then you would have to remove the bedding from the first go around, unless you have the exact same contour on the new barrel, then it might be a matter of sanding on the bedding and skim coating it. Not removing the whold thing. I also agree on the thumbhole, no accuracy problems just feels alot better and you can suck it up to your shoulder better. Joe Oakes [/QUOTE]
