[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 231650, member: 8843"] The Truing jig will work if light cuts are made , My jig is a bit more rubust than most being made from 5" 7075 aluminum stock and 5/8x24 bolts , I used a brass bushing that barely slip fit on the barrel and realy torqued the screws down , I never did use a drill on this barel instead using a boring bar and a taper attachment to get very close to the chamber size before using a reamer then going painfully slow in the reaming. This resulted in a perfect chamber for my one and olny Encore barrel build , with the lengthened set and machine time along with the lug fiting and welding this barrel would cost over $1000 to make , no money waseted on my part but I woulden't do it again. But just for chambering I think the jig would work fine. [/QUOTE]
