Who records their Custom turned barrel profiles?
Often you see a profile you like on a rig, but often its precise geometry is not know...for example, any know what their HillCountryRifle precise profile geometrics are? bewildered
How has your luck been showing a smith image(s) of what you like, and him getting it done very closely correct?

I got Border to exactly copy my sako AII sporter so I didn't have to alter the barrel channel. Sako have had numerous profiles so I didn't want to take a chance.

I got a perfect copy that fitted the channel absolutely perfectly.

We can do the Hill Country profiles. They use a variety of different configurations so if you know what the cartridge was we can duplicate it.
