Re-Barreling a Shilo

[JKR]

Steve,
A good friend recently had his long range rifle re barreled with a Douglas 16 twist, 45 caliber barrel. He had it chambered in 45-90. It shoots beautifully! He used it to win the last 1000 yard match at Harris Mn. I think you’ve made a good choice for a long range barrel, although I don’t know what your intended use for it is.

Having said that... Since bore scopes have become easily available to everyone, many good, serviceable barrels have gone on the shelf. I was certainly surprised when I looked at some of my best ones. It would be interesting to know what you’ll see when you take a peek down your brand new barrel!
