I’ve got a spare Q fix barrel that I’m not using, and I’m wondering what's involved in mounting another barrel to the barrel extension. Ultimately I'm wondering if there's an easy path to a 6.5cm sporter profile barrel in the 20-ish inch range (e.g. Tikka lite-ish barrel), without the expense of a proof carbon or a major gunsmithing odessey.
Do the Q barrel extension specs match any common prefit barrels (eg savage small shank, etc) or is a gunsmith is going to be required to cut a proprietary shank, length, threads etc. I'd obviously have to head-space, but I'm curious if I can treat the barrel extension as an 'adapter' for a more broadly-supported pre-fit shank?
