Replaced. Several members here can do it.

What caliber?

Price depends on how much work is involved. If just unscrew old bbl and screw new bbl in, could be as little as $20 - $25. Price goes up if headspace or timing needs adjustment. That involves extending the chamber (which means special chambering reamer, several tries fitting & removing, possibly some lathe work).

Time is money.

If you can find someone who relines, that may actually be cheaper.
