PROOF Tikka Drop In

[madgrad02]

Did a little searching to no avail, and outside of buying an aftermarket stock (which I eventuality intend to do) I came across a PROOF drop in (sendero contour) for a Tikka T3x at a price I couldn't pass up. Can the stock barrel channel on a T3x lite be opened up enough to accept the PROOF barrel for the interim until I can save up some additional fundage (CFO doesn't give me the fun money I used to get). Getting a can for it (7mm mag) is on the list as well
Thanks.

Of course I post and get all these nice similar threads at the bottom with most the answers.

Here is a thread by @Jon Boy that might be helpful.

Hells Canyon Armory- Summit Barrel ***Updated 1/8/20***

Its 6.6 lbs and I opened the barrel channel and bedded it myself. Then I stiffened the foreend with bedding compound and it stiffened right up. Still hemming and hawing over what stock it will reside in in the future but for the time being its shooting lights out. Jon - do you have that barrel...
