Recomend a gunsmith for a re-barrel?

[trephilgar 1]

I recently posted a question regarding a left handed .17mach2 and the dificulty of finding one.

 

Another option I have is to purchase a .22RF and have it rebarrelled for .17Mach 2.

 

Can anyone recomend a gunsmith in the South East who could do this?

 

Also if you have or know of a left handed .22 which needs a new barrell let me know.

 

Many thanks

mate i wouldnt bother it would cost more then the rifle. your better off just getting a hmr i think

yes the ammo cost more but you have got more distance and more choice of rifles.

 

plus the hm2 is round about the same noise as a hmr anyway

Many thanks for the reply.

 

Only issue with the HMR is that the land is not passed for it or suitable for the HMR or WMR.

 

Local police are happy for me to have a mach2 but have said no to anything bigger.

 

Mach2 is better than nothing and dose give me loads of land to shoot on.

so is the land passed for 22lr ? if so it seams a little weird it wont be passed for hmr ? i no in some areas the hmr would be aloud on land passed for 22lr because hmr is classed as a smaller round then 22lr.
