DH, that would have been the first Baker actioned Woodward I'd have ever seen.

IME, the "barrels by another" are dinged by the market more than "replacement barrels by the maker", but not as much as sleeved barrels.

Per "The One Hoss Shay," no maker has yet firured how to make all the parts wear out at the same time. So, we will always be faced with guns that are not entirely OE. I quite agree that knowing how to value them is a big issue.
