But I ended up with a match barrel (that Tony measured and scoped and said was an extremely good barrel) that was stainless and with a match chamber. Shoots awesome too!

I have considered doing a 17HMR barrel based on my experience with the 22LR, just haven't got round to it yet!

Not sure that Tony is taking on much work these days though... Last time I talked to him he was trying to limit to rebarrels etc for existing customers.

Cheers mate.

I flicked Tony an email but haven't heard back. Most others either didn't want to touch it or were too busy lol.

Mark at desert guns said he can do it so will give him a crack. He said he'll do it for a price cheaper I can buy the chamber reamer and go no go gauges for otherwise I would have had AB Reid do it.

Will report back with how it goes once done. I personally won't be able to shoot it until end of Feb though.
