Sight/Barrell Band Install Question
Was wondering if some of the gunsmiths on here would help me out with some pricing. I did a search and found some info, but it was several years old and wanted something more current to help with my budgeting.

How much should I budget to install a barrel band and banded front sight on my rifle. All parts will be NECG which I will supply.

Thanks in advance for any responses!!

30+ years experience tells me that perfection hit at .264. Others are adequate but anything before or after is wishful thinking.

My charge for installing these two parts is $60. I fit them by cutting a taper so they closely match the barrel taper and then solder them to the barrel.
