[QUOTE="Rustystud, post: 191896, member: 9964"] [b]Short Chambered rifles[/b] There was an article about this about a year ago in Shooting Times. For the cost of reamer ($95.00 t0 $152.00), gauges ($75.00), barrel vice ($50.00- $200.00), action wrench ($25.00 - $200.00) and some time you can make a shootable rifle. But not using a Kreiger, Bartlein, Broughton, Lilja, Chanlynn, RockCreek, etc., quality barrel. All these barrels will cost with in $20.00 of each other. I believe Adam and Bennett, Pacnor, ER Shaw, Shilen, Douglas, and Lowthar Walther offer short cut or prefit barrels. I believe you get what you pay for, both barrels and gunsmithing services. A reasonable price for custom chambering a barrel, including cutting, turning, threading, chambering, headspacing, crowning, test firing, and engraving chambering/smith/neck dia is going to cost you between $150.00 and $250, depending on the quality of work done.
