.303 Barrel Question??????

[8dDUCE]

I was wondering, I want to purchase a .303 Barrel for a MKIII*. I have seen them for $25.00 (NEW.) I also saw a Wrench for this Barrel. Now the Question... How hard would it be to Change my own Barrel??? I know that I have to consider Headspacing. So, how would I set the Headspacing?? Do I need some type of crush washers to shimm the barrel??? I know this is more than One question, but I want to Re Barrel this weapon, myself!!! If it is Possible???? Thanks for the Help!!!! 8dDUCE.

Well I've never done one but I'd imagine you'd have to support the receiver so it didn't get twisted or bent when you screw off the barrel.

Headspace is usually done on a lathe. You turn the shoulder on the barrel until it comes up right. However, that doesn't mean that's how it's done on an Enfield. Like I said I don't know for sure.

Oh and remember they make different sized bolt heads to tune in headspace. So that may be the answer. Just screw it in then put on the appropriate bolt head to set the headspace.
