BUCKMTWHO FOR RE-BORE/RIFLE BARREL?
I want to bore out and re-rifle the .32/20 barrel that is on my low wall and rechamber to .357 Magnum. I can do the chamber work but not the barrel/rifling. Who do you guys recommend? What kind of cost am I looking at, ballpark?
Thanks in advance.

303GuyAt what cost, if I may ask? I am planning of doing something similar to a 303 Brit barrel - 35/303 or 41/303. There is a guy here in NZ that has a barrel rifling machine but I haven't asked him his price - yet.

VFR1Danny Pedersen of Cut Right Barrels has done several for me in 9.3 and 10.75mm. All excellent shooters. He is in Prescott, AZ.

DMBAl Siegrist in Whittemore, Michigan also re-bores barrels.
He rebored one for me that is as accurate as you'd want it to be. He took an old Buhmiller barrel that was a 257 Roberts, which was beyond it's accuracy life, and bored it out to 7mm, and then chambered it for a 284 Win.

BUCKMTThanks again, you guys; I bought a low-wall in 32/20 with a #1 barrel (octagon) and am going for a 22" in .357, my son will chamber it once it is bored/rifled/cut-off. Should be a neat little thing when finished. We've got some pretty snazzy walnut, going to be tough to pick the blank. I'll try to post some photos when I take the time to learn how...
Once again, thanks for the help.
