Thanks for the responses. I had an idea of a two barrel set but it may be more trouble than it is worth.

Ed, it sounds like a lot of work but it's not that bad, Especially if you can come up with a bolt to match the barrel.

With all due respect, there is a LOT more to properly fitting up a set of barrels than the plate/bite issue. Actually, that's one of the more manageable aspects. If a hobbyist is not well trained in fitting barrels, and especially Parker barrels, the chances of making a muck of it in some way are about 80%.

If you must have a second set of barrels, there is no better investment than a professional fitting.
