I have a heavy Savage Varmint barrel and would like to turn it down to .750ish it has shallow flutes which could be a problem, anyone know of somebody that could do this for me? I would like to try this before buying a new barrel and I know things could go south but I have faith, reason I am hesitant to sell is due to twist rate it's a 243 Ackley with a 1 in 9.25 and everyone thinks they need a 1 in 8, anyway any leads would be great. Thanks, Jim
 
Turning down a factory, fluted, button rifled barrel sound like a great way to spend money with a high probability having a tomato stake when done!
