Anschütz 54.30 barrel tenon

Sorry I couldn’t help. I’ve attached a photo of a 54.30 barrel tenon. It’s a complicated piece of work. The chamber is separate from the barrel and it looks like headspace is set with shims.

Hi all:

The thread is (from memory - from the last time I rebarrleled one) M18x1.0. The chamber is split, with a small section containing the chamber "body" and extractor cuts, and the barrel containing a short section of chamber and the leade. The pin at the base maintains angular rotation position (for extractor alignment when assembling). The conical engagement surfaces maintain concentricity as the chamber portion and barrel are assembled.

It is Anschutz's version of the Bleiker mechanics (utilizing a split chamber), although IMHO Bliker does it much better (and at a much higher cost FWIW).

Again IMHO, the main advantage to the split chamber is in the machining of the tennon chamber / leade portion. It is much shorter, and its really easy to see (machine and finish) what you are doing in this critical area. It also removes the machining and clocking of the extractor cuts as they are no longer a part of the rebarreling process (which is nice).

Hope this helps,

kev

Kevin, thank you for the info!
I have not seen one in person yet. What sort of action wrench do you use?

I have made several over the years for various diameter round actions. They're all aluminum in construction (so they don't scuff anything). I'll send you a pic if you're interested.
