I found a place here in MN, Ahlman's gunsmith near Rochester or Mankato, thats a bit further than driving distance though so I will probably ship the barrel anyways. They were much more reasonable than Briley, it looks like everything on Briley website might as well just say "Goucchi" on the side of it. I can choose Remington or TruChokes for less than half the price, but the aftermarket chokes are all $60-$80 also so I will quickly spend more on chokes than drilling the barrel. I think im going to have them cut the forcing cone in front of the chamber also, I havent heard any real world data on how that helps but Ive read a few times now that its supposed to help groups and especially with the larger shots like buckshot.
