[QUOTE="Bigeclipse, post: 1672371, member: 52437"] All, I have a Remington 700 in 3006 I am wishing to rebarrel with a factory contour sporter barrel. It currently wears a pencil thin mountain barrel which groups only ok. It yields 1-1.5inch groups which has been acceptable since I mostly hunt to 200 yards with this rifle but now im wanting to bring it to 400 yards (yes I know the current groups will work as well but I want better). I basically want to send the rifle to someone to put a new barrel on it and while they are at it, bed the B&C stock it currently resides in. I wish to keep the barrel relatively light as a more handy type rifle so 24in length will be max and I would prefer to keep it around the sporter-ish contours. What are your thoughts on where I can send it? I have no gunsmiths near me who can do this work (That I have found yet). Will I be able to ship it to them directly like sending a gun in to ruger for warranty repair or will I have to use an FFL? Thanks! [/QUOTE]
