    importing barrels

    I realise this is probably too hard, but whilst I was mucking about I found some rifle barrels from an American supplier for wicked cheap.
    Short chambered 7x57 for 87 uS, and 35 whelen for 70us. Not too shabby for new ones even if they are budget.
    Not counting the exchange rates, what's the likelihood of a cheap barrel once its landed?
    How much for duty, cops have to say its ok as well before it even starts yeah?
    Haven't even emailed them to see if the will export, (got turned down by a US stock maker on the weekend dammit!), so wouldn't get my hopes up too much.
    green mountain even has a short chambered 300wsm for 57US. so that's another option but definitely didn't want to go that way.
