Chop my barrel
« on: November 03, 2022, 08:41:18 AM »
Thinking of taking several inches off of my barrel. Does anybody have a good gun smith that they would recommend for such a job?

Don’t know where you are located, but I use Benchmark Barrels in Arlington or Brett Evans on So. Hill in Puyallup. Both do good work.

Id find as local a Smith as I could.  That way you can poke your head in his door once in a while as a reminder hes got your rifle.  Even a cut thread crown or even just cut crown could take them a while if theyre busy.

 :yeah:

Will definitely help people with offering suggestions, unless you don't care about local to you and are willing to ship?
