    Have a Wilson .308 barrel for an AR platform rifle that I would like to get threaded, can anyone recommend a shop? The couple I checked had turn around times out to 2 months, seems a bit long to me, but hey what do I know?

    Yes, they do. $100.00 turn around time is 4 weeks.
    Are you getting the savage axis threaded?

    Ok, here's what I have found so far:
    Defender Outdoors, $135 3 week turnaround
    Winchester Gallery, $90-125 6-8 weeks turnaround. The person I spoke with couldn't tell me what determined the 90 or 125...
    Shoot Smart, $100, $100 4 week turnaround

    ChrisMo68,

    If you drive down to Austin this coming weekend I can thread it for whatever reasonable donation on your part factoring your travel cost. I will do it while you wait. Bring the muzzle device with you. Interested? Send me an email

    No I am getting my savage model 11 heavy barrel threaded. There is a place in dallas about 20 mins from me called Rays hardware and sporting goods that charges 165 and the turn around is only 1 week

    I finally got around to having my savage model 11 threaded about 2 weeks ago or so. It took 4 days and it was 165 dollars at ray's sporting and hardware in dallas.
