Requesting a little advice on barrels

[captainbarred]

Hey fellas,

I have a Savage 10 PC and love it, but it seems to keep evolving.

Recently I have been considering replacing the barrel with something longer, but at the ranges I shoot(local range only has out to 300 and I've never shot beyond 800) I don't feel I have any real need for anything more than the factory 20in barrel.

Despite this, I really want the barrel threaded.

So the question becomes whether I should just thread the barrel I have, or sell it and buy a barrel already threaded.

If I thread my existing barrel, suggestions on where to send it? If I go with a new barrel, suggestions on what to look for/at?

Keep in mind, as the Choate stock shows, I'm a cheap guy. :)

Any input?

Thanks in advance!
