Author Topic: 30.06 barrel for my handi? (Read 350 times)

I have a .223 Handi-rifle and was thinking about getting a 30.06 barrel for it. Now how does this work? I send my gun in to H&R minus the .223 barrel and they fit the new barrel? Will I be able to just change my two barrels back and forth as I please?
Thanks for any help.

Yep. Sounds like you got it.
Go to the barrel accessory program.

Don't bother sending your stock set with it. Ask Quick what happened to his.... :wink: It will save you shipping cost also. Once they fit the 06' barrel you can switch them back and forth as you please. Expect a 3-4 week wait when you send it back. But i think the turn around time is pretty low right now. i'm thinking around a week to 2 weeks.

You don't have ta ask, here's a pic of what happened to my BC stock while they had it...they did replace it, though!!

Thanks for the replies. That's what I was hoping I could do, fit the new barrel and just change barrels as needed.
Seems too good to be true though. Two differant rifles for a small barrel fee?
By the looks of your stock Quicktoo, I think I'll just remove the stock and send it in without it. I suppose I can do that?
Thanks again for your help.

Yes, you can send it in without the stock....weighs less, costs less, easier to pack!!
