In reply to: Mick, maybe I misread the thread, and I don't feel like wading back through it right now, but didn't they decide to sleeve the barrels (monobloc 'em and fit new tubes) rather than just sleeving the chambers? That would take considerably longer, but I'm not sure why that should take a year.
Cripes I hope not. That would turn that rifle into a real abomination. If that is the only alternative than new barrels (chopper lump) is the only fix.
