I'm contemplating a project to convert a 8x57 K-98 Mauser (Yugo) to .338-06 and sporterize it. Given the cost for me to purchase a barrel wrench and chamber reamers, I'm thinking of having a commercial firm / gunsmith re-barrel the action. Any recommendations for barrel manufacturers (or others) that do this kind of work? I'd then play with stocks, bedding, sights, etc.
This would be my first gunsmithing project. Any experiences and lessons learned would be appreciated.
