browning a barrel
 

i am planning on browning the barrel on my yaeger barrel soon and plan on using laurel mountain forge browning solution i have done other barrels with great success but was thinking about the application process and one of the possible problems is if you go over it too much or rub it too much at once it can what they call "copper" on you which is not too good for the process. or just getting a even brown tone has anyone that has done this ever thought of spraying it on with a light spray instead of wiping it on i think it will work well and plan on trying it any thought's or tips ? thanks !

I'm about to do my barrel too. It will be my first one, so I can't help much.

I'm going to just follow the instruction Laurel Mountain gives on their site.

yeah that's what i did for my t/c patriot kit gun it came out really well !

well i finished my barrel and i'm very very pleased with how it came out it doesn't match the lock perfectly but it's close i couldn't redo the lock because of the engraving. theres one pic i have to resize that really shows the finish.

any progress on your barrel ? i did mine in laurel mountain as well.

wow!! you did a real nice job. That is a beautiful rifle.

thanks i even surprised myself on how well it came out !! i'll try messing around and get some better pic's that are right side up ! lol i have a state shoot coming up this week so i'm going to try to get the rifle sighted in for the shoot. i think i'm going to try to do a you tube video on barrel browning ?

No, I had to sell the gun and go to an inline. My lower back is trash and I couldn't shoulder an 11lb gun with a long barrel anymore. As a matter of fact I broke my back a couple of weeks ago, so that reminded me how fragile my back is now.


Your barrel came out nice. Good job.

For some reason the pics are pixelated on my screen. But from what I can see it looks real nice. Good job.

Yeah pics not that good need some daylight but thank you !

Bummer about your back sorry to hear that my dad broke his twice and was plaqued with back trouble so I know what your going thru ! Yeah barrel came out super nice it's hard to believe rust can look so good !

Thanks, but it's no big deal. I break it all the time. I wouldn't feel right if I wasn't healing from a broken back. :)

here is a few more pics of the jeager

nice job, pretty rifle!

Thanks it came out pretty good still getting it dialed in. Had to file off most of front sight and still working on loads and distances seeing what it likes.
