Nitride Bolt Treatment H&M Request

I used a company called "Tech Nickel" a couple of months ago. Their small batch was $150 but I got an email from them a few weeks ago saying they were going up. $200 I think, but don't remember now. They did a good job with decent turn around. Maybe people could look into doing a group thing.

I just sent them an email and asked if they did a " batch" price.
 
A fyi for those who dont or didnt know like me: The H&M min lot charge is $350 for small parts up to 350 pieces, or a buck a piece!!
 
This was from Straight Jacket Armory. It went to spam so I didn’t see it right away. Not sure what to think of the pricing. $250 for bolt and action? I’ll have to call and verify.

Yes we send in actions every few weeks. Its

125.00 Bolt
125.00 Action

To reference, In March this year I sent H&M Arizona all of the following, complete barreled action with bolt and shroud, two Defiance Deviant short actions with bolts and shrouds, two complete sets of Talley European sling swivels, a screw jack I had recently made and one other thing that I can’t seem to remember. They charged me the flat rate of $350 and $35 return shipping.

I was paying $125 per action, bolt, shroud and cocking piece so $250 is a bit of a bump up since I could do two for that in the past. I’ve got two to do once some work is completed and likely a third so I’ll probably just do a batch for myself direct with HM. Part of this that some of us haven’t spoken about was some inconsistency issues with HM. I may just have to roll the dice and see how it pans out with them.

The action and bolt where flawless.

A customer of mine had a nice Kreiger barrel ruined by HM. No warranty implied or offered. Be careful in your dealings. Personally I would never nitride a barrel myself. Just something passed onto me in conversation, as I did work on his replacement barrel that he had to purchase. Ouch!

Paul what was ruined with the barrel ? Was it warped,corroded or quit shooting.

I wouldn't say H@ M ruined the barrel ive seen about 30% SS barrels get ruined by nitride over pretty large sample but never a CM barrel.
I had H@ M nitride a 20 cal pac nor CM barrel that was chambered in a 20VT and it shoots really well.
