Pete lives just out side of Spokane WA. He is into having all the right details for the rifles he builds. I liked the wall gun he built a couple of years ago. It had a 6' barrel on it but the barrel was built by Ed Rayle. Not many can rifle a barrel out that long. Hand swamping a barrel is a lot of work. I did one once from a tapered barrel. I will never do it again. There are just too many great barrel builders out there.
