If anyone has experience with swapping out barrels on featherweights I would be interested in learning from you what worked and what didn’t.

It depends on your barrel but it's around $450-500 (KS arms, Benchmark, Krieger, Hawkhill etc)
The chamber job depends on your gun Smith, Henry Remple is close to Calgary. KS arms and EM precision do awesome work. Insite arms builds tac drivers but a little more expensive than the above three.
Chambering is usually around $350-400 I wouldn't cheap out on a good gun smith tho.
So budget around $800-900 is what I usually do when I need to rechamber my match rifle.
