Barrel is secured with pressure fitting, four bolts tensions the barrel to the breech.Marko
The receiver ring is precision bored to take the shank of the barrel in a tight, slip fit, the barrel accurately located by a short pin in the shank mating with a slot in the front of the receiver ring.Inside the ring is a virtual V-block mounting system made up of two shallow C-shaped locking clamps housed in recesses in the bottom of the ring, internal curve of the clamps exactly matching the shank diameter. Screws through the bottom flat of the receiver are wound up to push each clamp against the shank and hold the barrel in place, a simple but precise way of locking everything together while still allowing barrel interchanges.
Marko,Do you have pictures you can share?Thanks

They should be in the forum in the Lucky shot build thread if they are not deleted already.

That thread is this one I think.
I like that idea-you are basically holding the barrel in a collet...
