I was recommended to Randy Henson of Acworth and he did my chop/recrown very quickly and it looks just like the recessed crown that Marlin put on the original barrel. He took it down from 22" to 18.25" and reblued. It looks great and I'm going to shoot it today and see how it works out.

I am wanting to have my Marlin XS7 .308 barrel cut down from 22" to 18" and have a recessed crown done. Does anyone know a good smith in the NW Metro area that does this sort of thing?
Also, what's a fair price for what sounds like a simple job like this?
