Barrel swap

[rjtfroggy]

I'm not a machinist so I'm probably asking a dumb question. Can a barrel threaded for a Kelby Kodiak be put on a Kelby Panda with out any rethreading or head spacing?
In other words, are they inter changeable?

Panda, Kodiak or Grizzly should all be exactly the same.

Provided the bolt nose style is the same (coned or flat), they are interchangeable....another attribute to Kelbly's great actions.

A slight veer off course.....when I shot the HBR class with a Kodiak, I'd screw a new HBR barrel on my Panda to sort it out, then put it on the Kodiak. It sure made load work easier.

Kelby's offers a spacer for the Atlas action that allows the 1.115 'Panda' spec. tenon barrels to be used on them. My Atlas is set up like that and it's great to be able to swap as needed or desired.

Good shootin' -Al

Thanks to both of you.
I have a Panda, and 2 Kodiaks waiting on a 6mm barrel but I have a brand new Hart 30 caliber sitting on the shelf, just don't know if I want 3 30 cal. for score shooting two would end up Hunter class.

I've got a 'Wanted' add on here for a Kodiak. .- Al
