the P14 doesn't have the coned breech, so yeah it doesn't need it which is why I'm asking if it has been or could be done.
Big thing with P14/P17 is the diameter of the receiver thread. they are about the biggest out there.
So if you are being a tight arse like me and looking at using a preloved barrel, it really has to be from the same rifle or at best a fat target barrel that has enough meat out past the knox to allow for machining the whole thread off.
With an P14 barrel I am more likely to get a 303 to replace what's on it, or be really lucky and get someone's other calibre barrel from an already sporterised P14. Some still around of the former and not many of the latter.
hence my question about the P17 barrel. .
