gunsmith needed for Anschutz 18XX barrel change

I have an Anschutz 1827B that is in need of a barrel. I would like to have the action threaded as opposed to the factory pressed and pinned method, just for ease of barrel changes if I ever decide to have more than one barrel configuration. I also have a 1907 stock that needs to be inlet for the 1827B action (magazine assembly) and pillar bedded.

The rifle will be shot scoped and also with sights. When shooting with a scope Ill be shooting off a bipod so accuracy will need to be #1 priority. I have emailed Chad Dixon @ LRI a few times but have not heard back, I know he is busy. I was thinking about giving Dan Killough a call to see if he was interested in taking on the project as his gunsmith Dan (I am not sure of Dan's last name) built a very accurate Stiller 2500XR for me.

I appreciate any experience you guys may have. Thank you!

I had Mark Penrod do the exact thing for my daughter's 54 action.

I have been extremely satisfied with Chesebro, (Previously MT Guns).

http://www.chesebrorifles.com/

I have three rifles and I have shot a couple 599's on A50 Metric (Scoped) and 399's plus several 1600 & 1200's on the conventional target. plus the amazing work on my center fire guns. I am actually having a barrel repaired, a take off from another gunsmith that would not back their work and gave sub par workmanship.

Threading the action is one option, with the other being a line to line fit with LocTite. This is a very common option vs threading.
