Colorado,

I didn't realize that you were relining shotgun barrels. Are you using an eccentric bushing at the end that you turn for regulation? Do you do any boring work on the exisisting chamber barel before relining? Are you affixing the liner into the chamber area only? Where have been the balance points on the ones you've built so far?

Please don't take any of these questions as personal attacks on how your doing things. I just haven't seen anyone do this personally and was interested in the process you are using to get the results. All of the barrels I've built so far have been scratch built or using an existing monoblock from guns that were converted and were already a monoblock design.

That said I have been thinking about pulling apart and relining some old damascus tubes then rebuild them as if they were just standard rifle barrels. That way I could get the look of the damascus but still have the modern rifle barrel on the inside.
