greydog, very good bit of knowledge passed along there and in a professional way. Thank you. I by no means have your level of experience but what you have relayed is very much in line with what I have seen.

People expect an action blueprint job on their factory rig with a new barrel, so the gunsmith provides it. How it’s done can vary greatly and the results are often times not easy to quantify. And somewhere in there the gunsmith has to pay the bills, and that’s not easily done spending all day on one $125 action job. These things are learned with experience, much in the same way that accuracy guarantees are not extremely valuable.
