How much do you charge to chamber a barrel?

All recommendations are welcome.
Andy Delikat at AD Arms in Michigan built my .223. Awesome guy to do business with. I'm well under an inch with middle of the road handloads and no development. Should be in the 4's with some work. I recommend him highly.

On here he's @230grRN I believe.
 
I charge $350 for Rem 700 type, both ends and 180 polish. Also check/square the ring, lap lugs, and square bolt face. Upcharge for early M70, 1903 Springfield, etc. Of course here in Kantafordia we have a Govt mandated, pink-elephant bullet train to nowhere to pay for...

My super match grade from PacNor, stainless, chambered in 20-222, cost $545.56. Shipping included in that price. Also Pac-Nut included.

Since it's a nut barrel, I didn't have to ship the action -- saved money on that.

It is beautiful, accurate, seems to clean itself as I shoot. jd
 
Mcgowen offers a ruger prefit option that doesn't require smithing. I have one and it is a great barrel.

I am working with Craddock Precision as we speak and they have just started making Remage barrels, I just received the first prototype. A Bartlein, Kreiger, or Rock Creek will be right around $550.
 
I sent 5 barrels and 3 actions off to my Smith. $250 each for chambering and had them back in a month.:):):):):):):):) I just don't understand anyone taking a year!:(:mad::confused:
