Straight jacket armory?

[308_Branden]

Has anyone worked with straight jacket out of Wyoming? I've spoke with them and they sound like upstanding people. Looking to get a barreled action spun up. I'm out of Florida does anyone have any recommendations for gun smiths who can chamber and install a barrel? Thank you

They were awesome for me.
Had them spin up a prefit for a lone peak and it headspaced perfectly.

SJA built my 338 RUM. It shoots really well and I've been happy with it. That being said, since you're in FL, I'd look no further than Altus Shooting. Excellent service.

I know some people who have taken courses with them and they get nothing but good feedback

Second question. Has anyone ever done cerakote on a defiance action?

I have cerekoted a Christensen Arms action. Didn't care for it. Seemed gummy or sticky. Not smooth anyway. I would Nitride instead.

What about bugholes? Aren't they in Florida or very close to it also?

Yes! I'll second that.

I have and I can't tell a difference in operation between the one I have nitrided and the one I have cerekoted. Both Defiance.

Straight jacket chambered me a barrel and it is very accurate. And I could always reach them on the phone from start to finish

Cole here from SJA. I would never cerakote an action at least not bolt and interior. It will get nasty. We offer a nitride service and that's the best way by far, it gives it lubricity and it helps with running much more smooth.

I have 9 barrels from Straight Jacket Armory and they all shoot. Many of my most accurate. My 300 PRC took a springbok at 1104 yards. Nothing but good things to say about SJA.

They are in East Tennessee. Greg does great work, but great work comes with high demand and requires patience.
