[QUOTE="eddybo, post: 224191, member: 7194"] Hope your son in law appreciates the efforts and the fine shooting rifle you built him. Good job. Gunsmiths do not get paid enough.....you are right about that. I have been trying my hand at learning to chamber. I have spent hundreds of hours in the shops to this end. I built a bunch of stuff still no chambers cut except in barrel stubs to make dies. I think I finished the last 2 parts of the puzzle last night. I had to make a bushing to keep the muzzle centered in the headstock and a ring to go around the tailstock quill to indicate off of. Now if my taper will arrive for my floating reamer holder I will be ready to chamber a barrel. Only problem is the action I planned to use for my first build got turned in to a f-class FTR rifle a while back. As usual I have either stocks and barrels but no action, or an action but no stock or barrel. This is getting frustrating. BTW if your wanting a kreiger better get your order in, I am going to order a lifetime supply of barrels here in a week or so and they are going to be busy. [/QUOTE]
