After reading Mule Deer's last post it reminds me why I nit pick so much about who is going to fit and chamber barrels. I listened for over a year before a recommendation came to me about a guy who did lots of work for benchrest shooters and was fast in getting his work out.

My son is a machinist and owns his own shop. He told me how important it was to use someone who has a very good reputation and knows how to set up the lathes to counter vibration. Needless to say I mailed two barrels to a fellow on the east coast and had the work back in 30 days. Both guns are 1/4 minute or less in accuracy. I might have spent a little more than what the average gunsmith charges, but I got an excellent job done by the man. The only time of my life I could consider myself as an "elitist", is when it comes to rifle accuracy.
