Anybody here have any idea how to get ahold of him? Looking to get a 7mm barrel wrapped, and heard good things, but can't find contact info. Wondering if anyone here knew him, or knew of his work. Thanks,

Travis

Look him up on Facebook and pm him. Not sure he is still doing it. Personal stuff, but maybe. The one I have from him is a broughton he wrapped for me. Has been terrific.

Going a bit from memory. But Broughton turned to his specs and Chris was cryo before and after I think. Mine is chambered 6.5 creed and I have second all steel rock for the gun. But with Chris's to start I did a bunch with random (from memory 42 grains) of R16 and 135 Berger Classic hunters, as this is to be a hunting barrel. Sighted in and then first 5 at 100 went low 3's. Shot a seat test at 200 and the seat from the 100 group was worst in test, can't remember groups right now. Shot a ladder at 600 adn this charge was middle of a lower node. Tested seed a bit more, and again from memory, but 5 5 shot groups of different loads on each side went just under .5 moa at 500 including d wild shots. Best was just a little under a inch at 500...pushing my abilities to say the least

Again not sure he is even doing it any more.

think he did the wrapping at Benchmark when they did them for abit

Don't know for sure but I heard he wasn't wrapping barrels anymore. I know about 4-6 months ago he was using x-caliber barrels
