A SHORT INTRODUCTION
Precision Barrel Work grew out of my days as a Benchrest Rifle Competitor in the early 90’s. Benchrest Competition necessitated both strict adherence to minimal tolerance and painstaking devotion to detail in order to be successful. Like anything else, in Benchrest, you normally have two choices when it comes to your equipment-Pay someone else or do it yourself. I quickly came to the conclusion that I could turn out a rifle as accurate as the best available and was always certain that nothing had been compromised for the sake of volume. Success brought admiration and soon I found myself doing the odd chamber job for fellow competitors. Which in turn ultimately culminated into Precision Barrel Work the Business.
Though I remain an active competitor at heart, my main priority these days is the satisfaction of knowing that the work that comes out of my shop is as good as the best there is.
A NOTE TO COMPETITIVE SHOOTERS
Being a competitive shooter, I have an excellent understanding of what other competitive shooters desire, deserve and expect. Because of this understanding and regard I hold for them, I offer the following pledge:
If you are a competitive shooter (i.e., Benchrest, High power…) who has been put into the predicament (because of an up-and-coming match) of needing a new barrel installed, a bedding job or some other "emergency", I will give your need first priority.
Of course, if I get flooded with these types of requests I shall have to work on them first-come, first-served, just as I do with everything else. (I’m being general here.)
There are many different twist, contour and caliber variations, I don’t stock an inventory of barrels. I order them per individual request, that way I don’t have an inventory that just isn’t quite what the next guy wants. If you need a barrel put on in a timely manner, it would be best to have it on hand because I have to wait just as long as everyone else when ordering barrels. I hope this will be of some help when considering your next Project.
