I have been toying with a few ideas for rebarrels on some 700s that I already own. One thought is to rebarrel my 7mag with a ultra mag but the base of the shell is .002 larger will my bolt face work for this? typicall how much tolerance does one have?

I have found some descent deals on new take off barrels plus I want a 300 and my 7 mag only has a 24" barrel
