REI: 40
Meadowlark: 45 (call beforehand to make sure they have a wide enough jig though, they couldnt mount my rossi axials on a 122 waist because of this)
Hillcrest: 55
Mountain Shop: 45

I think ski chalet is in the 40-50 range too. these are just the ones i know off the top of my head.

and yeah, i had heard REI was really reasonably with their pricing which is why i went there. With a membership it would have been 60, w/o one it was 85. I was pretty surprised.

Try Oregon Mountain Community on Sandy. I used to work there, pretty sure it's around 20-30.
