Recommendations for a good gunsmith to chamber/profile gas gun barrels?

I am looking for a new gunsmith to chamber and profile a couple of barrel blanks for some gas guns that I am building. Not looking for a hobbyist, looking for someone who knows their shit. Without getting into all of the details, my last "gunsmith" ruined the first blank that I sent him and then after waiting 8 months for another blank, he ruined that blank as well... both were left hand twist cut rifled blanks.
 
2nd vote for Paul Craddock. Also Compass Lake Engineering. I have another suggestion as well, but he is still fine tuning his lathe.

Barrel work is paying attention to details, and paying a good bit of money. ;)
