[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 617659, member: 13632"] I do it through the head stock but don't remove the action, I have a drill chuck set up in a tool post holder and slap the appropriate Gordy rod in it and dial in then barrel. Thread and fit brake then crown. I have had to do one that was short and I made a tool that goes into the action then I chuck it up and hold the muzzle in a steady rest. Not ideal but if I had to do many short one's I would make a steady rest with a cats head built into it. Takes me about an 1.5 hours from start to finish. [/QUOTE]
