Riflesmith in the north of england/SW Scotland

[tommy trucker]

I'm wanting my 6.5x47 (Surgeon action) rebarreled in 6MM BR and chambered for 75g Vmax

I know Ronin is not taking on any work at the moment, who would be my first choice.

Does anyone know of a reputable riflesmith in the north of England or SW scotland that would be able to do this for me?

Don’t know how busy he is, but I’ve always had 1st class service from Dave Wylde at Valkyrie rifles.

Hi.
Have you contacted Ronin to verify he still has full order books. He would be up there on my list.

Steve Kershaw at Howden gets rave reviews on this forum.

Double check with @Ronin but I do think he’s up to his eyes in work.

Other than that try Grant Taylor of Dundee.

Grant Taylor recently put a 1-7.5” twist barrel on my .243, glass and pillar bedded the stock then cerakoted it.
Fantastic workmanship.
You’ll find him on fb

Honestly I haven’t been to glenluce for a while so if this is a recent thing you may be right but there never used to be a gunsmith. He is my local gun shop but I squirreled away a decent amount of powder and primers and haven’t been for a year or two

Yes, it's been a couple of years since I was over.
Are you local to that area? Are there any other gunshops around there?

Game and country in Selkirk are very good. A fair drive for me but worth it usually as they carry stock and are reliable.
