Anyone done a new barrel on their action in the last month?  Wondering what the turnaround time is running now.  Larry

This was the turn around on my 22-250 barrel.

The receiver was sent in 8/4/05 arrived 8/19/05 11:15am cst.

I sent my receiver off last Friday (Sept. 16) and expect the rifle back next Friday (Sept. 30)

I sent my receiver off for a new 7-08 barrel on 9/16...H&R told me that there is about a 2 week turn around time right now.  So I should have it back some time after 9/30...

I sent mine on 9/1, with the holiday and weekend delaying shipping, HR got it 9/7, it is ready to ship now 9/22.  So HR had it about 2 weeks, maybe a couple of days longer.

I think it will be about 3.5 - 4 weeks total time including both directions of shipping.

should be arriving today, 3 weeks and 5 days, including shipping.  I suffered delays by both shipments being sent on Thrusday, and one of them a 3 day weekend.

I have one scope for the 223 ready to go.  I cant decide what to do with the 357 for optics.

I mailed mine on the 8th of Sept and it is due back this thursday the 29th, so it looks like 21 days.  Larry

This is the time of year to get it done.  Don't wait until Dec/Jan/Feb or you'll be looking at 6-8 weeks.  That sucks, I did it.  3 weeks is much more reasonable!

Sent mine in on Wed 9/21, called to Customer Service on Tues 09/27 to make a change to my order, and was told they were working on it... so I expect it might be back to me mid next week (10/5?) for a two week turn around. Not bad.

Cheers
