I have a friend that wants to have one of his barrels done. Anyone here know a reputable company? Thanks!

Everything good with JES? There was a thread on that other forum which raised some issues.

I had only heard good things prior to reading that, have a rifle I'd like to send him..

Same here. Would send him another anytime. He did one for me and one for a friend. Both done quickly and well.


Chronographs, bore scopes and pattern boards have broke a lot of hearts.

Agreed turn around times are quick. Both times has been right at 2 weeks including transit time from Alaska to Oregon and back.

Ditto on JES. Just got one back from him last week. 2 week turn around and initial load development is going good.

Good article in the March RIFLE magazine about reboring!

Some Guy named Barsness wrote it and seems to know what he's talking about. laugh

I have an old rifle that has a fat Buhmiller barrel, he may have built the rifle. I would like to have it made to a 6.5mm 06

Running first couple of groups with Nosler recommended COL, 200 AB/225 AB, 200's running under an inch, 225's running right at or slightly over an inch.

Happy so far, can only see it getting better from here. Would do it again if I had to.

Right on! My 338-06 that JES did for me likes both 210 sciroccos and 210 partitions more than the 225 accubonds. But I didn't spend a lot of time on the accubonds I admit.
