I am currently cutting custom barrel channels and ramrod holes. I can use your wood or I have a great selection. I can cut any profile and have a very quick turn around time. Usually in a week. Please PM me or email at [email protected]

Southern Indiana. You can ship it to me. The USPS is very reliable and fairly priced.
Any photographs and/or where can we see and hear about your work? No disrespect, you are just kind of new here.
I have been a builder for 35 years. I just got tired of high stock prices and long waits so I built a fixture for inletting barrels. Never was a big social media guy but figured this is probably the best way to get the word out. I do custom set up and can give you exactly what you want and it will be square on all four sides

I have had a barrel inlet recently by Trapper Bill and his work is very good. I met and talked with him a couple times. He showed me his process and the work was turned around quickly. Very friendly and offered any additional help I needed building the rifle.
He and his family has been involved with shooting at Friendship and local matches for a long time.
Turns out we have a couple friends in common.
I would recommend him without any reservations.

Is that the Hoyt barrel? Looks like a big hole.
