[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 2332385, member: 5219"] Watching this one. Did they do the chambering work too? I would talk to them and show them this picture.\ [B]Just looked and they seem to have a good warranty[/B][I] [B]IF they did the chambering work:[/B] "McGowen Precision Barrels wants you to be happy with the purchase of your rifle barrel and stands behind its products. It is our objective to leave every customer satisfied with his or her purchase. McGowen Precision Barrels receives very few inquiries concerning the warranty of our barrels. [H2]What does your warranty cover:[/H2][/I] [LIST] [*][I][I]Your barrel is warranted against any defects in material or manufacturing."[/I][/I] [/LIST] I particularly don't like the mashed portion of the lands. There are lots of marks left by the reamer that cut the bore which shouldn't show if it was truly lapped. And what is the cut out area in the groove area at bottom of picture? Makes me think the reamer was held rigidly in tailstock and was not true to centerline of bore. Would love to see all of the interior of this barrel. Wonder if there are other anomalies? IMO this barrel should be replaced. As an anecdote I find that there are many gunsmiths that don't own a borescope. I remember one gunsmith that told me he never knows if a barrel he installed would shoot or not..... [/QUOTE]
