[QUOTE="Canadian Bushman, post: 1155669, member: 41122"] You could opt to have the bores trued to the barrel bore and then finish contoured so long as there is enough matl left on the brake. I dont know if having too big of a bore in a muzzle brake will be a detriment to accuracy but i imagine if it were it wouldnt be much so long as the bore were true. Perhaps someone else can shed some light on that. The other problems like setting back shoulders and crappy crowns are a pretty easy fix once the smith dials in the barrel. Re cerakoting the actions and barrels wont be cheap. I personally would just tolerate the scratches and only re spray the ones that the muzzle break needs to match. I feel your pain. Its nice to enjoy something fresh and new for at least a little while. [/QUOTE]
