[QUOTE="Hired Gun, post: 934657, member: 1290"] A couple guys I work for never spend a dime. Doesn't mean I'm free though. I have my set fees but trade labor all the time. We don't care if your getting a deal. Why not give your guy a free plug and post his regular price? Those prices from Williams look to be in the ball park. I doubt anyone is getting rich at that rate. You would do better cutting timber 6 hours a day then you will performing those gunsmith services 12 hours a day. On factory barrels, cutting a new crown or lapping the bore if needed is pretty good practice but beyond that I think spending the money to set one back for new threads and a chamber is a false economy. Since the fitting costs are the same, I would rather take my chances on a premium barrel at that point than hoping the factory barrel will shoot better. [/QUOTE]
