what Rifle do you have Colorado ?
as to the barrel . there is more to it then just shopping for a barrel . see what you chose must also be fit to your stock or a new stock built for it . so even if you buy a new barrel that is the same across the flats as the one you have ., it must then be breeched to fit your stock OR breech to fit your tang if it�s a hooked breech . Also all underlugs must match .
If you cant do that yourself then you must look for a drop in barrel for your specific rifle . IE what rifle do you have . TC , CVA , Traditions , Pedersoli, Navy Arms�� and what model .
Now as to wood for a new stock .
that�s simple , Maple be it red , big leaf , or either of the two hard maples or Walnut , English , black or any number of European walnuts
Where to get it . Well your saying your probably wouldn�t be patient enough for inletting so that then reduces your choices to pre-carves . Which then must be made to fit all your parts on your gun .
So again we are back to what gun you have . There are a few places that make replacement stocks for TC�s and some of the Pedersoli . but few to non who make replacements for the others . However there are many who make pre carves . But your going to have to inlet the parts .
if you use your same barrel or a drop in barrel . You could just send your stock to a custom stock maker and have them duplicate your stock in your choice of wood . But even then you will have to do the final fitting as most times they don�t
So that takes you to a custom maker to make you a stock and since your thinking of a new barrel , really build you a new gun in whats called �In the White � using a new barrel and your other parts .
. I do that , in fact I do that a lot . But it costs and I will tell you up front it would be next year before I could get even consider taking another customer , im just that far behind .
But here are some of my custom restocks.
