I have a new Rem 700 XCR 2 in 338 RUM and would like to have the action Blueprinted
Any suggestions on a good gunsmith?
 
Most times, "blue printing" includes recutting the threads that the barrel screws into so they are in line with the centerline of the action. This increases thread diameter and your factory barrel will then not fit or at best be sloppy. Another thing to consider is the headspace may need to be re-set. Blue printing usually takes place when a new barrel is being fit.

It's likely that no further discussion is required, in which case we recommend starting a new thread. If however you feel your response is required you can still do so.
