How much does a gunsmith roughly charge for swapping a barrel in same caliber (.223 but different twist) on a Tikka T3 ?
I got the spare barrel, it just needs to be swapped and thread cut for suppressor.
I am not concerned about mag length, extension etc.
And who can you recommend to do this job on the South Island?
Cheers
zac earl at north canterbury gunsmiths or robbie tiffin at gunworks
Mate had a Tikka swapped to another Tikka barrel for $70
Cost me $60 at Gun Works to swap a T3 barrel with another standard T3 barrel, but that was without getting the new barrel indexed (the writing is not up the right way). Will cost more if you want it indexed but you could just get lucky and everything lines up.
Cool, thanks for your replies:)
Yup. Zac or Gunworks would be the two I would start with here as well.Quote:

Really? Good to know but I’ll find out soon enough.Quote:
