Can some of you recommend a good smith to change a 223 barrel to a different caliber. Ruger 77 bolt action. Smith would need to accquire the new barrel, perhaps.

This is just a simple rebarrel job. Any good smith should be able to do this.
Reamers and gages are rentable from 4 D products.
I have a good friend that has one, and uses it on antelope. Very effective.
Very accurate. Seems to be close to the 250-3000 savage round, but with less
reoil. There is a smith here I would recommend, but WY is a bit far from you.
Best, I know you will enjoy the round and rifle.
