I picked up a cheap Savage model 10 FP in .308 Winchester from a co-worker yesterday. The bad news is that the barrel is no good as it has rust and corrosion in the bore and outside as if it had fired corrosive ammo and didn't clean it (is there corrosive .308 Winchester ammo?). The good news is that rest of the rifle is in good condition with decent finish and the bolt looks clean. I paid $120 for it and knew the condition of the rifle going in.
I want to replace the barrel the of the rifle and change the caliber to .243. Anybody know where I can get a new .243 barrel and where I can have the barrel installed properly? How much will it cost to have it done?
