Looking to stick a new tube on my sisters 243. Found a 243 Ackley barrel from a guy who didn't use it.
The 243 now is just a standard 700 ADL short action.
The 243 Ackley barrel is a takeoff of a 700 SPS.
Will I need to buy a reamer to make sure the headspace is right, or should I be good to go?! Or... will I not know until I get the barrel screwed on? The AI barrel was already used on a SA 700.
Help!
