Rebarreling

[rachunter]

Does anyone know a good gunsmith that does rebarreling work.I have a remington 700 22-250 that needs a new barrel.I was going to try and do it myself,but don't have the tools or knowledge to do the job right.

Hart has been doing it for years.

Lawdwaz's recommendation of Hart barrels is a good one. They have been around for as long as I can remember and their barrels have a reputation for accuracy and quality that are second to none.

The Gun Works Of Central NY is another option especially if looking to use a barrel from another manufacturer, they can do just about anything you want when it comes to firearms.

What about contacting Remington themselves?

While your at it put a nice stainless Shilen Select or Match Grade barrel on that R700 and turn it into a sniper rifle.

There's Smiths that will do it. You just have to find them word of mouth. I had a guy in Islip NY many yrs ago that would rebarrel and precision head space rifles for a reasonable price.

Lots of good options. Hart is one of them.

I just had a Ruger 77RL tanger rebarreled by Mcgowen to 260 Rem. Very happy with what I received back from them as far as workmanship, finish and accuracy.

Just an FWI, turn around can be pretty lengthy with a lot of these shops, and what they tell you up front is never written in stone. Just have to be patient.
