Those with Lilja Spiral Fluted barrels.....Please help??

Why not order the contour you want and have lri do all of it? That way the depth of the fluting will be the same and the directions you can match?

Well have the barrel in hand, and the results are in......

Right hand twist it is!!! My bolt matches the barrel, all is right in the world, and I can finally sleep at night. Thanks all!!!

Oh ya, and 3.5 lbs for a 27.5" blank #5 spiral fluted lilja barrel. After cutting to 24" and chamber/threading, this will be a 7.5 lb bare rifle in .338 Norma mag. I'm using a MBM 5 port titanium beast brake, so it should be manageable as well.

I couldn't make out what the orange label says, too blurry in the picture but if you can invert it and read it you'll know the pic has been flipped.
LOL Oh no....a mismatching rifle.... you could start a trend !View attachment 135345

It says "6 months", and it is NOT flipped!

View attachment 135275 Is that picture right you posted or left hand fluting?
I would call it right hand

The picture I see in Lijas site (the one I posted above) looks like right hand to me also

Right hand!

What's going on in that barrel on scale picture Cody ????
It looks like Spiderman invaded the Hulk in the middle of a diaper change....
Remember this is the Future Dream Gunsmith thread as well.
I hope we clear this up by mid August as I drew the 94-7 tag in "yer parts"

Yup ha ha lawn and garden edition even. The flies have been terrible recently....

Next to a stuffed animal that plays music and puts lights of colored stars on the ceiling, my 3.5 month old daughter Abigail loves it ha ha. And then a bouncer is in there as well....accompanied by a large coffee mug to keep me going between the infant, 4 year old, 6 year old, wife, home renovation, and work ha ha.

That's awesome Chris!! My wife, cousin, niece and I all have 2 each of the same tag, there is a ton of goats. I'll get ya lined out on an alfalfa field, last year it held about 150 goats ha ha. We will have to put the smack down on em!!
