Rifle project help!

Howdy all,
Apologize if this is a double - first one did not appear to go through.
I want to rebarrel one of 2 mauser actions to 450 B
1891 Argentine or Gew 98
The Gew 98 is an old bubba job sporter with a worn 8x57 barrel. the 1891 Argie is just a barreled action. I think the inline mag on the Argie would feed better, the Gew 98 is already D&T.
The barrel I would like to use is this one from Green Mountain
http://www.gmriflebarrel.com/productdet ... d=45-BLANK
should give me well enough barrel to be a rifle and perhaps add a comp to the end?
Richard's Microfit stock planned
So, anyone want to do the chamber work or will let my local gunsmith borrow some reamers? I hate to buy them for one job. Need to get this job on paper so I can take it pig hunting on my trip to FL!
