any one out there know where I can send my Ruger 77 RSI 243 to be rebarreld to a 358 win? The ruger is in really good shape and I sure would like it to be returned back to me this way...but with a 358 win barrel!! woooo hooo!

Dave,
call IT&D... good folks, douglas barrels,... and pretty fast...

or pacnor!

I am not all that familiar with the 358. Will the 243 bolt face work on it?

There's a ton of smiths out there that can do the work for you.

Try John Noveske at Noveske Rifleworks.

He is a former PacNor employee. Mostly uses pacnor bbls. He built my 30.06. Knows his stuff.

jeffe, are these the folks you are talking about?

Dave, if your located in Lubbock, TX, this guy is in your back yard. Mike Bryant. He has the reamer for 358 and is close enough to visit and drop off the gun without the shipping BS.

Thaine,

thanks for the heads up-you ever use this fella?

Dave

No, but I have seen a lot of good reports on him. He spends time on the 6mmBR board and another one or two. Suggest a google and see what you turn up. Appears to be an accuracy (BR) smith, which is fine for what you want.

LubbockDave, Mike Bryant is a great, honest guy, and will deliver when he says at the price he quotes. He has done a few things over the years for me and I am very pleased. His website is one for all to see. He will not do your Mauser.
