AMRAThanks for the website address .I e-mailed the guy he said he could do a 35 Whelen but bull barrel only and no open sights.Then a story in a old issue of RIFLE caught my eye,it was by Phil Shoemaker? I think about reboring your barrel to a new caliber.I have a brand new 30-06 s.s. rifle barrel with open sights now thats in my tc encore frame.That I`ve never even shot a round through.A guy listed in the magazine story e-mailed me that he could rebore my s.s.30-06 to 35 whelen for about 265.00 I think after Alabama`s season is over this year I will ship the 06 barrel to him and "Git her done!" in 35 whelen.Only downside is he`s got a 6 month or longer turn around.

Single*ShotI have purchased two stainless barrels through Bullberrys. You can contact them at
fred@bullberry.com They have always answered me. I purchased my 300 win mag and 338-06 barrels through them and I live 5 miles from Thompson Center and the Fox Ridge Custom Shop in their parking lot. You could try purchasing your barrel through them also. I haven't but that is another story.
Good Luck!
