For bolt gun?

Up in Bay Area is Spartan who did a build for me earlier this year. He gets lots of good reviews. If you expand your search radius I suggest giving them a look.

@grebski I thought I had heard he was doing less smithing and/or winding his business down. Am I mixing him up with someone else?

Must be someone else.
I'm keeping busy with barrel work on bolt guns as well as autoloaders.
If you have all your parts, I can put a barrel on an action for you in a few hours.
Just contact me by email to setup an appointment to come over.

Pumped to hear youre still knocking rifles out Randall

Randall’s your guy! Builds hammers! Super easy to work with and a great shooter as well. I’ll be using him to build my 6.5 early next year. Just need to gather up my parts.

Thanks for all the replies. I decided to go with a smith that was close to where I live. I contacted Randall Rausch at ar15barrels.com, brought all my parts to him this morning, barrel was finished a few hours later. Great to work with, shared a lot of info. Since I'm a newbie to precision rifle, I appreciated all the info, and the time he took to explain some details that I would have never known to look for . Barrel looks GREAT, chassis should be arriving in a couple weeks, we'll see how it shoots.
