I have a Remington 700 SPS AAC-SD in an XLR chassis. I want to put a PWS PRC muzzle device on it. I understand that it comes with a shim set to get it timed properly.
Is this something I can do myself without the use of a vise or clamping device? Does the rifle have to be removed from the chassis? Can I just screw it on the rifle with some shims as is until I get it timed properly? Can you hand tighten it or does it need to be torqued? Can you torque it while in the chassis?
Let me know if I'm in over my head and need to go to gunsmith. I would prefer not to. I have an AR15 wrench. I'm not sure if that is the right size. I don't have a torque wrench or vise.
Sorry about the noob questions. I can't seem to find clear DIY directions how easily factory threaded parts can be joined. I would appreciate step by step directions.
Thank you.
