    Gunsmithing Gunsmiths thoughts on a Bartlein 5R

    Gunsmithing Chronicle of my first build

    Awesome work cast be careful with the tape on the go gauge after full torque on the barrel and action it can be tighter than you think. I use round disk shims now that are .002 and .001" thick. Just an idea but your work looks awesome what turning and threading tools are you using ?
