Would appreciate info on sources to get an Anschutz 54 action single-point threaded & the barrel re-fitted. Any help would be appreciated.

Joe,
As you find out more post the info here please. I did my Annie 64 myself but the 54 has an offset somewhere and I have never handled a 54 action that has had the bbl removed so I dont' know what might be involved in threading the rec. The 64 is all straight, you do it like you true a Rem 700 with a tight fitting arbor and an external ring on the front rec ring for the steady rest.

Butch Hongisto did mine and put a good Broughton barrel on.
I am very pleased with his work, she is shooting very well .
I can only recommand Butch's work .

Gene Davis in Ohio is another excellent gunsmith who does fine work on Anschutz rifles.

Joe, Richard Gorham had the 2 top finishers in the just completed indoor Nationals. I think he would be my man.

OK guys. Thanks for the replies. I will check with the recommended sources & let everybody know what I find & did when it's all done. BTW, this is not a rimfire BR rifle, just a Hornet that converting to K-Hornet didn't go too well. I like things done right, so trying to find someone to help me straighten out my boo-boo.

I'm sure any of the recommended would be absolutely 1st calass, Fred. I was just clarifying my situation.

Joe,
I'd be curious as to what your smith says about this project when considering the rear locking lugs. They strike me as a bit small for such a project, but it's more a guess on my part. I have a pair of their hornets, one the 1730 and the other the 1432 single shot. I had considered making the 1730 into a .17 AH, but opted not to because of the bolt lugs.
