Barrel Maker for M70 Rifle

My queston is do we have in NZ any barrel makers who could turn out a high quality replacement barre for a Winchester M70 ? I'm talking about a barrel for a CRF, Left Hand action, with coned breech and the extractor cut, profiled to match certain dimensions and barrel band taken off one barrel and fixed to the new barrel. It would be stainless, in .375 H&H cal and throated perhaps a bit longer than standard.
Right now I'm not absolutely certain I will need this but want to know who to talk to should I need to take that step.
Tankyou for any advice.

Talk to trueflight.

Truflite - give Grant a call, excellent service

Thanks fellas. True-Flite is on my list ( actually the only one on my list so far ! ) as I already use three TF barrels that I'm very happy with. I regard TF as top notch barrel makers.
I wasn't sure if they could do a 1:12 twist in .375 cal plus cut a throat a little longer than standard but I guess the best way to find out is to ask Grant.

If there are any other good barrel makers out there I would like to know about them. Please add any further suggestions.

As a thought, has anyone dealt with Hugh Bradley, formerly the NZ Blaser agent ? I'm not sure if he handles non European rifles.

Cheers

Also,
What is Dean Maisey like to deal with ? Just a bit of quick research shows me he could also be a possibility.
Cheers.

Ive had Hugh do some work for me, excellent job. Hes definitely worth talking to, likes good projects, and this sounds like a good project. Makes his own barrels and can manufacture almost anything from scratch. He is retired, but still does work on guns. Give him a call, and then definitely worth a trip to pick up your rifle and check out his workshop.

Dean is really fastidious in his work, you won't be disappointed with the quality he turns out but he can have a bit of a lead time.

I think I own a barrel from every nz barrel maker (to my knowledge
Haveing said that I don’t own a truefllite currently) i have owned several though and they are brilliant barrels…. to my knowledge they only do
1-10 in 375 if they done a 12 I would own one but they only do stainless which is a turn off for a vintage rifle guy like myself

So i have got 2 hawken barrels one in 375 1-18 and one in 458 1-20 tony is long passed on so no longer an option
I have one hugh Bradley barrel 375 1-12 I got this barrel from hugh about 2 years ago and I think he has since retired I don’t know for certain though
I have one valcan in 458 1-18 and i have ordered a couple for mates aswell…John makes a fantastic barrel like really good
I have a mate who shoots at a very high level internationally and he had a look at my valcan and said it was as good as anything else he’s seen John unfortunately doesn’t do 375 only 379 (38/55 1-18) but he is the only nz barrel maker to my knowledge that offers 4140 moly steel (if hugh has retired)

I have a dan hardy barrel on my 6mm creedmoor 1-8
Seems to shoot good only ive only put 20 rounds down it though

Thanks for the additional comments guys.
I heard back from Grant at True-Flite today. .375 barrels done only in 1:10 twist, not 1:12 so not an option for me in this case.
