trueing an action

How are you going to hold the barrels in the chuck without bending them? Why not just use a pusher to run your reamer or are you aware of what they are?

Ben,

You can't read with your fingers.

There are some people that have replied to your post that have built hundreds of rifles. Get Hinnant's book and read it before any more posting.

My 2 cents

Ben

+1 what Ben said. Best thing I ever did.
Butch, Nat and the others get my questions after that.
Well worth the read.

Could one of you fine gun smiths explain reset the contour when you have a gun worked on.
Thanks in advance

 

[butchlambert]

New one on me unless he doesn't like your barrel contour and wants to turn it. That should be your decision.

I am asuming the barrell was turned a bit or not rite and he made it rite correct.
Thanks

 

[butchlambert]

I have not a clue. Sounds a little fishy or you are using the wrong terminology.

Wild guess is that your fitting a larger barrel and need to open the stock up to the new contour

 

[geno22]

Well I guess I will be a dummie and tell him to show me what he means, same gun an barrel, just needed work on lugs that were gaulded. Pre owner failed to keep it lubed in this area. Thanks guys, wil let you know what I learned whitch all of you already know. Like you said probably different termonology.

You are supposed to ask about anything he says that you don't understand. Wasn't nobody born knowing this stuff and they all learned from someone. I learn from everyone.
