KevinNYSource for a .330 bore barrel?
Anyone know who makes a blank appropriate for a .318 Westley Richards?

Tell me about you 318WR project.
I just got my hands on one of these old beauties.

KevinNYRichard,
I am basically trying to build a rifle very much like the one you posted pictures of before. To do so makes no sense whatsoever since I could have a 338-06 instead, but it's not about making sense. I just want one, I think it's a neat round. Lothar Walther here said that the .330 bore is not catalogued but was (is)? made at least until last year, they are emailing Germany to see if there is a blank laying around in old stock.

JustAWeldorKevin, have you tried Krieger? On their website they list
a barrel for a 318WR in CM with a .318 bore and a .330
groove. They show a 12 twist only.

KevinNYThanks, I had not looked at Kreiger yet.

Alberta CanuckFrom whom do you plan to get bullets? I still have some older Barnes "original" .049" wall copper tubing bullets for mine, but I don't think Barnes makes them any more (hope I am wrong).

Woodliegh has em and Midway happens to have em on sale. Also, Hornady is making some .330" bullets for Grafs.
