So I was going initially joking when I mentioned getting a second, but the responses got me thinking. Is it a straightforward home job to swap out a different caliber barrel? What’s the approximate cost for a conversion that will maintain good accuracy?

I feel I do need a 6.5 to go with my manbun and matching Sitka outfit with the tags hanging off.

As much that would help us its definitely worth just getting on from eurooptic at that point you'd need barrel for maybe 150, and tooling to remove the other unless you have a friend with a barrel vise, wrench, no-go go gauges etc. https://www.eurooptic.com/tikka-t3x-lite-stainless-synthetic-lh-65-cm-22bbl-1-8-5-8in-x-24tpi-synthetic-stainless-jrtxb48222mt
