after those miles its at least worth a strip down to check bore condition, ring gap, piston clearance etc....then decide on what it needs. ;)

Just got mine back from Langcourt, a re nicasil is about £110 and if any welding needs doing ( mine did ) £150.
Sent mine with the piston and they sorted it out with the correct gap. ( it was an A grade barrell and a B grade psiton)
A week turnaround
Very good service and the barrell comes back like new.
