[QUOTE="cohunt, post: 1627395, member: 94491"] Sounds like you may have multiple problems so I wont even start the troubleshooting process. I'm sorry but know when to say when. Cut your losses and move on. I did same thing once before on a 308 barrel, 2 years of time- over 1000 rounds,different powders & primers, several types of brass, lots of different bullets, several triggers, different scopes and mounts several different die sets--- I got rid of it, bought a new barrel and life is good Bartlein does not sell ar15/ar10 barrels, they will sell you a blank but you must profile it, drill has block and journal, chamber, thread, crown, install extension, head space to bolt, flute etc. So it's most likely not the barrel blank, but the Smith who did the machine work. Bartlein does not even sell bolts or extensions-- too much hassle for them. You are fighting the Smith who did the work, a Smith is only good if they will stand behind their product. I'm sure you could find someone who would charge you more $$ to "inspect" your barrel and chamber but will it gain you anything? Good luck, but I feel you are just digging the hole deeper .
