At minimum you will need to rent a finishing reamers, the headspace gauges and the right barrel and receiver wrenches. That runs you at about $100, and you only get 5 days or so to finish your project. Check E R Shaw or some of the other lower cost barrel manufacturers, they install their barrels for less.

As I get older I find hitting a mini ram at 200 yards with the 22 oddly more satisfying.
