Chad Dixon at LRI does a lot of Model 70s.

Another vote for Chad Dixon. He actually has a M70 Classic Stainless that he is re-barreling for me right now. I did my homework, and LongRifles, Inc came up a lot.
I just bought a M70 classic stainless 338 win, soon to be a 7prc. Other than a rebarrel are you using any of the other services they offer? At the very least I want my action inspected to be sure it is true and the lugs are lapped. If not a full true/blueprint. Also a bolt firing system tune up.

I'm pretty sure LRI can do everything you are looking to have done. In addition to the re-barrel project, they are blueprinting my action as well.
I think the 7 PRC would be great on an M70 action.

Windage Weaponry in Gypsum Colorado just did an 03-A3 in 25-06 for me. Did great work and didn't take 6 months.

Mike McCabe in Colorado known as Z1R on many forums is a Mauser Gunsmith that does good work.
I like your style and your sense of humor Harry knutz. Thanks for the info. And to all the others that responded thanks for the info i will check them out. I have one or two mod 70/mauser type projects in me, then most likely going modern actions for the easy button. I have enough classic control round feed toys to last me a life time. I was eyeballing the ARM I think it is called the mausingfield action? any one have any experience/familiar with it. I am not hijacking my own thread, but it seems to be a modern version with some classic dna. Thanks to all

Yes he is. I've known Fred since the 70s and have two sporters he built - a VZ 24 and a K. Kale.
