Now that I've finally settled on a cartridge for my recently-purchased commercial Mauser action, and this being the first custom work on a rifle that I've ever comissioned, can you folks out ther recommend (based on first hand experience please) a riflesmith who can do the work.
I sense the urge already for some to respond "Anyone can rebarrel a gun who calls themself a gunsmith."
With all do respect, please refrain.
I did not mention my trials with handguns and shotguns and here, I learned the hard way. Yes, you'd also think that "anyone can open up your chokes on your fine old Fox double." No they can't. That's why I respectfully ask for first hand recommendations only, and the closer to the Upstate NY area or upper PA the better as well.
Thanks everyone.
