I had no serious challenges beyond those one encounters from not having done it before.
Have fun and good luck!
What type of feed system does yours use (detachable mag, hinged floor plate, etc...)? Did you have to bend the feedlips any or make any other modifications? I've talked with guys who have tried to make 7.62x39 rifles out of a Savage 243 and had issues with the round diving down as the bolt was moving forward and stripping the round from the mag.
