Need a smith

I need a gunsmith to screw on a Shilen barrel for me. I have a Montana 1999 action(Winchester 70 clone) than needs to have the factory barrel removed and the Shilen barrel put on. The chambering work was done by Shilen with a PT&D reamer for 180g Berger's in .284 Shehane for an Fclass rig.

Who would do a great job that would have decent turn around time?

The barrel was long chambered so all that really needs to be done is shoulder trimmed and headspaced.

Thanks.
 
You would have saved money buying a blank and letting a smith fit it for you. He will have to do the time consuming part of the job indicating in your long chambered barrel.
