Freshening out barrel?
« on: November 29, 2012, 09:09:04 PM »
I recently picked up a really nice contemporary Jaeger that was not taken care of. The barrel is a .60 cal. Getz barrel but is severely pitted. Does anyone know of someone who could could freshen this out to a .62 caliber? There is plenty of barrel thickness, so that would not be an issue.

Forgive my mental block but there is a guy named Bob near Gettysburg who is excellent.  I will try to think of his last name.  Maybe someone else knows him.
Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual.

I think Bobby Hoyt does this type work. Don't think he is near Gettysburg but he is in central PA.
