I know that some smiths can charge up to $50 per dent. I have one of the hosford multi guage sets and when I do them I usually just see how much time I have invested in doing the work. Especially if there are several to remove. I would think anyone is going to charge at least $25 for one if they need to get the tools out and do it.
And surely the severity of the dent is going to make a difference in the cost as well.

Another thing to consider is if you are going to get the barrels refinished or not or if they will be left as is. I know that Dale Edmonds includes all polishing and dent work in his refinishing price, so in cases like that it is best to leave them be and let the refinisher take care of them.
