Remember Prefit is not the same as on the self. Prefit means that the you do not need a gunsmith to have the action in hand to cut the threads and install it. Most (if not all) Custom actions publish a set of tightly controlled tenon specs that allow a smith to cut the barrel chamber and headspace it without having the action to fit it to. They send you a headspaced threaded barrel and you install or you have them do it if you don't want to. Most here shoot Custom Pre-fits.I'm hesitating whether to buy a pre-fit barrel or a custom one.

plus cost of blank, correct?my last barrel was at the smith for like 2 days.
$300 Chamber/ tennon (i'd assume this covers crowning also.
$85 muzzle thread
CORRECT.plus cost of blank, correct?
Thats about what I pay at Bugholes, his prefit price is 325 for an impact shouldered and 100 muzzle threading, blanks are running me 425. time to ship is 6-8 weeks.CORRECT.
Obviously the 2 days does not include the wait time for the blank either. I keep my own spare barrels on the shelf.

Yes. Please. Do tell.What action?
It all depends on who you send it to?
Some guys are backed up for months and others can turn it around in days.
There are pros and cons to both.
What action?
If you don't care about having the engravings timed then maybe a prefit is good enough.
Tell us what tools you have on hand so we can be better informed on how to guide you.I'm hesitating whether to buy a pre-fit barrel or a custom one.
Not long at all.how long does it take for a gun smith to chamber a custom barrel for an action?
ThisLRI
Chamber, thread muzzle and cerakote barreled action.
10 days from departure to arrival. Half of that was shipping time. I supplied barrel.
Results were flawless.
