Sawney Bean's latest activity

So what you do to recrown a barrel is first make the cut as flush as possible, then you chuck up a bolt with the rounded end facing out...

You can cut quite a bit of barrel off of a springer without negatively affecting the velocity. It's mostly that long just to give you...
