Travis, are you mostly/only using Proof CF barrels are have you hung any others yet?  Have you heard much about the Hardy CF barrels by chance?  They aren't particularly easy to get being that they are from NZ but I've heard they shoot really well.

Only using Proof at the moment.   Have messed with a few others and the quality isn't there for me to use them.

The only thing that leaves the shop is stocks for hydro dipping.  Everything else is done in house.

I was reading and came across where you mentioned a self timing muzzle brake. Can you tell me more about that or give a link?

I know Rbros has moved but I was wondering if you guys would be able to rebarrel a Browning Xbolt Western hunter? I have been shooting mine LOTS and would love to keep the rifle alive and fancy it up someday with a barrel job and some cerakote on the action and barrel

Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Every father should remember that one day his children will follow his example instead of his advice.
