Thanks Robert. They are about 1:45 minutes away, but that may be the best option. I do not want to go somewhere that was not recommended. I am not to sure of the local shops capabilities after talking to a few about having it done. They all want to send it to the “Smith” who I can’t talk to.
You can ship just the action, that is an option. I just took off my scopes and shipped them the whole rifle in a double hard case. FedEx put it in a box and shipped it, coat $125 dollars . Very easy to deal with. Will definitely use them again.
I have a 270 I'll be sending in a couple of months.
