NE GA gunsmiths for barrel work

[Magnus Kjartansson]

Hi all,

I´m new here in GA (and relatively new in the US) and in the need of a good gunsmith to set back a barrel and re chamber from 6.5-284 to 6.5x47Lapua.

a coworker recommended a guy in Cornelia, Gibby´s custom rifles, do any of you have experience with him? other recommendations?

cheers
Magnus

You could try hogleg Smith in Oakwood. Rumor is he is semi retired but may take it on. https://www.google.com/search?q=hogleg smith

Aces and Eights in Lawrenceville. Myron is a great guy. Recrowned a barrel for my a while back. Could probably do the set back work the OP asked about. I never asked him about doing that.
