Gun smith recommendations
Looking to re-chamber a rifle to 300 H&H and wondering if anyone has a recommendation of a gun smith in the central Alberta area.

David Henry chambered my 300H&H this year. Job was done quickly, no issues.
Nice guy!

Send it to me I can use the practice. Lol just kidding. I've gotten some work done by Ron Smith. He's got a long wait list but might be able to squeeze a quick one in.
