Ive had great luck with:
James Kobe in Bloomington, MN Re-barreled a 700 and blueprint, great results.
Travis Stevens TS Customs just did a barreled action for me, also awesome shooter

I had Jim install close to 10 barrels on F-class rifles before I got my own lathe and his work is great, affordable and fast, what more do you want.

I trust my gunsmith. He's known around the US but I won't tell you who he is because I like dropping my stuff off on one day and picking it up the next

Jeff Hayes of River’s Bend Gun Co took my dads old Remington 700 280 rem and gave it a face lift. The finish and attention to detail is amazing. Going to get it to the range later this week. It’s now a 280AI with a proof 8.4 twist

Jon’s building me a rifle. First custom for me. Can’t wait to get it.

Jon Beanland is one that I keep on my go-to list. Also George Gardner and Terry Cross.

Have been very satisfied with each rifle Jon's built for me.

Currently have a rifle with him for re-barrel (actually, having him do two barrels for this rifle).
