[QUOTE="earl1704, post: 1302866, member: 8946"] Tried all the suggestions, the 7mm bullet will not go into the barrel other than the tip, cant see any wear or impact marks on the muzzle break. No stamp on the barrel to indicate caliber. I called the barrel marker and asked what was ordered and the gunsmith ordered a 1:10 so that's on him. According to the barrel maker polygonal rifling is the latest and greatest thing but the etching inside the barrel is barely seeable but they said it supposed to be that way. Ran a dry patch down the barrel to see what the twist would/should be the patch would not turn even a little. On a later call to the barrel maker I told them what was happening instead of the usual 'the stars are not I correct alignment' or it 'must be the ammo' or some other excuse they said to return the barrel and they would replace it. Did not need to coerce them or argue...........just "we will replace it". Some how or someway something is wrong with the barrel they just don't want to say what. In this life as they say s*%# happens so if they are willing to stand behind their product I ok with it. The gunsmith that's another story...................Thanks for you help and input...........Earl [/QUOTE]
