2) Am I right in assuming that once the rebarrelling is done my rifle ceases to be a C&R?

I'm not a lawyer, but a re-barrel to fix a shot out barrel won't impact the C&R status as that is maintenance. Modifying the gun with a new caliber however, would change the status of the gun and pop it out of the C&R category. But again, I'm not a lawyer -- just some guy on the internet, so take it for what it's worth.
But, I thought the C&R status of a gun is only an issue if you decide to sell it to a C&R holder and ship it to them. A FTF sale to a normal person shouldn't be different than any other FTF non-C&R sale.
