ultramag Report post Posted November 19, 2014 What is a fair price to do a barrel swap on a 700 Remington action.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AverageJoe Report post Posted November 19, 2014 $100 or less. If more its because some wont do it without truing the action etc and will charge over $200. Pm me if you dont have a gunsmith in mind and you live in the east valley. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lancetkenyon Report post Posted November 19, 2014 What do you consider a "barrel swap"? Stock barrel for like stock barrel, same chambering, just spinning off old and spinning on new factory barrel? Stock for stock with checking headspace? Custom barrel installation with cutting new chamber? Timing new barrel? Trueing action? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ultramag Report post Posted November 19, 2014 Without the cost of the barrel.. Chambering trueing the action basicly everything involved in installing a custom barrel. Here's what I got. 700 rem short action, .270wsm. HS stock..what I want is a 6.5x300 WSM, I know the ballpark of what the barrel costs.. What I don't know is what the smith will charge.. Looking for a quality job with everything that is required for this swap.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
