sleeves

Figured the headspace would not be an issue since each sleeve woould have its own dedicated bolt. The sleeves would be vastly different from the Navy sleeve in that they would be more akin to a cartridge converter. Each sleeve would drop into the barrel's base chamber, nothing more than a counter-bore with a slight taper. Might need to fix in place with set screws.

Anyway, first project right now will be to chamber a barrel in 7.62X54R and get it in a Mauser with a modified bolt face and extractor... Extra Mauser bolts and replacement magnum extractors are much cheaper than Remingtons and easier to work on.
