Thread: Cost of rebarrel

If you can, I suggest that you go just up to next contour ( Remington sps or tikka lite), it is not going to make your gun much heavier but maybe more accurate with a bit less flex in the barrel. A full Blue print might not be neccessary but getting the front face of the action trued essential.
Good luck with the build

agreed but FWIW none of my 3 rifles with Remington 700 Actions were "trued" in any waywhen rebarreled. All shoot pretty good @ well under the magic MOA.

Maybe I have been lucky.

My barreled Shilen barrel shoots better and was less fussy then either of the Truflite ones I have
