I completely agree with this statement. Nobody can make a barrel that makes up for a bad wind call. Yes they all ring the same prior to stress relief. They were the same length but I never thought about weighing them... that's a great point. Thank You I will soon be doing cryo in house so I...

So far I have only made centerfire barrels.

The "Hummer" barrel It is my opinion that the “Hummer” barrel exists in only one harmonic condition and here’s why. If 100 identical barrels are identically chambered and mounted to the same rifle then we will get a few that will perform much better than the rest of them so we call them...

The tooling marks that you are asking about are in all barrels that have been bore reamed without being lapped. These marks are caused by the bore reamer. With a cut barrel these marks are on the tops of the lands prior to lapping. With a button barrel the marks are in the grooves and on the...

Back in 2018 I posted this pdf file but it is no longer available since the website was upgraded. The recent thread in this forum about the new Edgewood Tracker bag got way off track and developed into another great score target/bullet size controversy so I decided to dig out the old pdf file...

Dear Elmer, I want to thank you for all of the hard work that you put into operating this website. This website is the absolute pinnacle of precision with many forum users being the world’s best shooters, reloaders and gunsmiths. The information that has been accumulated over the years...

The direction that this thread has taken is exactly why I don't post much on this forum. I operate one of the most modern barrel shops around and I have gained a lot of valuable information that I will share. I perform all stress relief in-house and I sub-contract my Cryo work...

BREAK-IN....Not really breaking in the barrel...Mostly the chamber throat With any premium barrel that has been lapped, the lay or direction of the finish is in the direction of the bullet travel, so fouling is minimal. This is true of any properly finish-lapped barrel regardless of how it is...

Over the last few weeks I have seen many posts on this forum about this or that score target and this size bullet versus that size bullet. Not one time have I seen someone graph it all out and do the math on it...... so I sat down and done it for myself. This was not done to promote one...

I want to thank everyone that worked so hard to put on such a great match. The 2017 UBR nationals was the most competitive yet. Each class continues to grow in the number of competitors as well as the ability of the shooters. The best thing about the UBR is that the rules and format...

The IBS and NBRSA rules are defined from the bolt face. I already had the max dimensions drawn up on my cad/cam program because I manufacture barrels. At 20" from the bolt face IBS Hunter class .918 NBRSA Hunter class...
