Thinking about putting a new barrel on a Remington 700. It is about 40 years old and a .308. Considering putting a heavier barrel in .260 Remington.
Any suggestions on barrel makers and what to expect in gunsmith costs to put the new barrel on and modify the stock. This was originally a Model 700 ADL and I put a Hogue stock on it many years ago. I have a Remington model 7 in .260 and I already reload for it. I have used the .260 for deer the last 5 years and really like it and it will be a starter gun for my grandsons.
