CZ 550 Varmint barrel switch???

rjloun
I have both calibers it's available in, 22-250 and 308 and I am running out of room in my gun safe! Forgive me if these are dumb questions but I need some education

Question #1: With basic tools, can I easily / safely switch barrels back and forth on one gun? Thus, giving me the option to sell the other action and stock.

Questions #2: If I can switch; Besides the obvious remove stock, remove barrel A, attach barrel B, attach to stock... what do I need each time to do the job? Is it just the headspace gauge for each caliber?

I've read it can be done on my savage 110 and seems like a simple task, but can't find anything on my cz's. Is the process basically the same?

Thanks in advance, you guys are always helpful to us amateurs!

    CAN IT BE DONE........YES
    EACH BARREL WOULD HAVE TO BE HEASPACED TO THE ACTION/BOLT YOU WANT TO USE
    YOU WOULD NEED AN ACTION WRENCH AND BARREL VISE, IF BOTH BARRELS ARE 'FREE FLOATED' YOU MAY NOT NEED TO REMOVE THE STOCK. BENCH REST SHOOTERS DO THIS ALL THE TIME.
    THE SAVAGE USES A DIFFERENT HEADSPACING SYSTEM THAN THE CZ (BARREL RECEIVER AND NUT) SO YOU CAN SWAP BARRELS AT WILL WITH ONLY THE HEADSPACE GAUGES NEEDED (PLUS THE BARREL NUT WRENCH, NO EXTRA FITTING OF BARRELS)
