I've already packaged/boxed up one of my 257 WB's for a rebarrel. My borescope verified why it does not group as good as it used to. 500-550 rounds, and is no longer sub moa with 100 grainers. Unless someone here has a really good option for south houston area(i'm in lake jackson), it's being sent to douglas next week. But i'd rather spend my money locally.

I don't know of anyone local to you, but if it's already boxed up, ship it to Aquilla Custom Gun Works in East Bend, NC and have him put a Texas-made Shilen barrel on it (or any other you choose).

Not real local, but N Houston. Roberts Precision Rifles, Aaron Roberts https://rprifles.com/He use to let you drop off on Fridays. He has done work for me and a friend. He rebarreled his 223 and it is a hammer.
