Here's a Springfield sent in for some rework and finish. Drake's Gun Works handles all my Melonite, and he does a fantastic job.

The test target was shot at 25 yards, and I was shocked what the Springfield 2 piece barrel come up with after a re-crown. That's 8 shots in the target. Again, you can see some ideas from the masters here at LTW reflected in my work...you know who you are :D

Enjoy!

ETA: Sorry for the blue remnants of my Ransom Rest Pads in the serrations on the frontstrap. I forgot to clean it out of the the gun before the pictures.

Very nice. A clean simple build with everything you need.
I'm not really surprised at the accuracy results. I've seen it before out of these barrels.

I think that this is my favorite of all the fine examples of your work you have posted. It has a clean elegant look about it. Well done.
