I visited LRI in 2012 and again in 2022. The place was absolutely hopping in 2022. it was standing room only. However, Eric took the time to meet with me about a rebarrel job. They delivered on time. If they aren't answering, it's because they are running.

Directly from Howa in Japan when I inquired some years back: Hello, ****-san. Thank you for your interests in our products. Regarding the twist rates of our .223, they vary depending on their production time as follows: upto July 2013 - 1/12 from Aug. 2013 to Apr. 2018 - 1/9 since May 2018...

My experience with CVA has been nothing but positive. BPI turns out some accurate barrels.

Glad to see this.

I bought the reloading manuals first (Lyman was a good one) and learned a lot from reading it. The advice provided above is spot on. You'll find over time that your time is money and to reload more and quicker, it will become more expensive. An example of that for me was a Giraud trimmer. For...

Stainless vs. 4140 receiver maybe?

That is nice! Not many manufacturers produce 22lr rifles these days with steel and walnut. That would be a joy to hunt with.

I have a Borden Alpine that Karl Feldkamp built for me in .223 Ackley. It has to be one of the smoothest bolts I own and also one of the tighter fitting bolts. I've had this rifle ~15 years and never any of the issues you're experiencing. You should probably contact Jim Borden and inquire with him.
