I am trying to add x54R to my Vickers calibers. I have a new chrome lined x54R barrel. However, the Vickers barrel studs that fit into the Vickers rails are a smaller diameter than the x54R barrel studs. If I enlarge the holes in the rails, I cant use the Vickers barrels any more (.303 & 8mm). I need to know how to reduce this diameter. I have no machinery of any type........I do have a very capable guy standing by with lotsa machines & experience.

Back to the Vickers....... the studs are .597 Vickers, .630 x54R barrel. Eyeball indicates the rear portion of the .630 is OK where it is, material removal has to come from top, bottom and front..???

Manage attachment doesnt work here either.
