[QUOTE="Tyler Kee, post: 1732726, member: 107051"] Labor Rates for my smith, published on their website: Action Truing - $200 Barrel Install (thread for receiver, chamber, and crown) - $350 Muzzle Threading - $100 Stock Bedding - $250 Parts costs are what they are. Cursory online research says $300 - $500+ depending on manufacturer (steel only. Carbon is $$$$). Not sure if you need a recoil lug but they can be had for $40 or so. So for a rebarrel of an already trued/bedded action - I'd plan on $800 to cover the blank, the muzzle threading/timing, and shipping. Maybe more, maybe less depending on how many barrels I'm getting spun up, if it's a weird chambering, or if I went with super duper barrel blanks or something more pedestrian. Rebarreling a virgin 700 and putting it in a nice stock, take that $800 and tack on $450 in labor, plus the cost of the stock. Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
