I'm into a new project....
CYA friends:
My only reason for staying with rimfire accuracy advancement, is the hope of a MD-PAS triple pistol, for the masses.
Frankly, after thirty years of doing RFBR, I'm bored.......I apologize...
I've won every big national event, multiple times, over these past 30 years......
I have absolutely nothing new to win........on the big national stage.
So I'm bored with the same ole, same ole.......I apologize...
_______________________
Now......these new MD-PAS triple pistols.......................oh man, that's an entirely different story.....
_________________________________
So here's my new project......( while we're waiting for these new pistols, for the masses)
I've got a ton of old, used barrels in the shop.......most are either worn out or damaged from improper cleaning.
Take-offs..........
So I went through a bunch of them today......looking for a candidate for my new project...
I found an old, early, 4 groove Broughton, way before the 5-C and 4-C era.....
Fit for a Turbo......
This old Broughton 4 groove, measures .2225" in the grooves.....and extremely round in the grooves..
And I'll be perfectly honest, I don't remember exactly why I have this old barrel.....
It has a pronounced divot at 6 in the bore, so it's been shot a couple cases, at least....
CYA friend, I'll continue tomorrow......
My phone just rang and I need to return this call...
Your friend, Bill Calfee
________________
PS:
OK....
I returned that call, so I don't have to deal with it till tomorrow...
But, I just had another call......which I feel I must return...
But real quick:
This old, 4- groove Broughton is so old that I don't remember the story on it....
So quickly, here's what I'm going to do:
I'm going to see if I can make this old Broughton competitive in today's modern RFBR world.
more later.....bc
