Hi, It’s hard to say at the minute with all the delays. For me barrels are roughly taking 4-6 weeks to arrive, and proof about the same. My last batch were 6 1/2 weeks at proof. Then my time to get the work done which is a couple weeks or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JR FIREARMS Posted October 24, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2021 I personally never use to be keen on it and preferred straight flutes. But i’ve come to really like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronin Posted February 27, 2022 Report Share Posted February 27, 2022 A tough one Jack On stuff like that I’d be running a .090” undercut .010” forwards of the action face to relieve tension on the barrel Works a treat Remys are notorious for being pigs to get off - they use some kind of loctite that compensated for the poor threading jobs ,,,,, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most Loctite products give up at 300C . I wouldn't think that sort of temperature would cause any metallurgical issues (with steels).

JR FIREARMS Posted February 27, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2022 Yes i normally part them off too, especially blued howas. But both lathes were tied up with jobs, so i just had to get medieval on it 🤣 This had a nice mix of loctite, rust and carbon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't think that sort of temperature would cause any metallurgical issues (with steels). I avoid using heat, there is no need for it with these. And it avoids any damage to the bluing or heat treatment. The main issue is gripping the barrel well enough in a normal barrel vice, the stilsons take care of this.
