Hi guys.

I dropped a Remington sendero 700 off at a gunsmith this afternoon to have the factory barrel (which started to group poorly) for another (exact) factory barrel.

I asked what it would cost and he said it should take more than 2-3 hours (@$75hr). Don’t know the guy, his reviews were good and the usual channels are booked solid with the doomsday hoarding- but I was shocked. Watching some YouTube videos and reading forums i figured it was an hour job w proper head spacing.

Any thoughts or contributions on what kind of effort or cost would be appreciated...
