I use Bullworx and Texas Custom Rifles for most of my needs these days. West Texas Ordnance has done fantastic work for me as well, but their backlog is a little longer than I’d like these days. For a simple rebarrel I’d probably lean towards Bullworx for turn around. I’ve put numerous rifles from each through their paces, and all do fantastic work.

We haven't had a good smith who could work on old/new since Stokes left...the valley NEEDS a reputable smith. Suppressed Tactical Solutions on 281 has some knowledge & will tell you if they can fix it or not. They don't really advertise it I think, but might be able to help you vs the two hour drive. Good guys too.

All the folks that will ever touch one of my actions/barrels have been mentioned in the thread already. I am sure there are many more out there but as far as trust goes; I have shipped Robert (APR) and Pete (Precision Barrel Work) 2500 -3500 in parts without heads up just an attn:.. I know they will send back a rifle capable of shooting in the .0x range with the right handloads. In fact, I think both of them have one of my actions right now!

Originally posted by 6.5CM View PostPortland TX, they build a ton of custom rifles. Nice guys, if I was closer I would be hanging out there after work or on the weekends. My rifle is still there actually it’s going to take awhile, they have a lot of work. Check out their webpage or FB page. They are also on the list of top smiths on the PRS circuit, while only being in business a few years.
