The bolt face and extractor need not be a concern for re-barrelling a 6.5, but the 6.5 is a great calibre. It is only about 5-6 thousandths over the standard case size at the bolt head. It is not much trouble to rebbl a swede. I USED TO do a rebarrel, headspace and test fire for 100 bucks. It can be done with a good STRONG vise and a headpace guage, but by trying various factory loads even the headspace guage could be eliminated. I'd probably ask 150-175 to do so today!
