Looking for someone who can reline the barrel of a sporterized trapdoor. Any suggestions?
Bob Hoyt 717-642-6696.
John Taylor - (john@johntaylormachine.com).
I had him reline my original Remington No 1 Sporting Rifle 45-70 RB. The insert can barely be seen and instead of patterns of 2-1/2' at 50 yards my first outing with the rifle I and the friends with me hit a 100 yard gong with every shot.

John's work is amazing. You can't go wrong. .38 Special to .32-20 WCF worked right out of the return ship box.
Bobby Hoyt did my 'sort of' Long Range Rifle, 6 groove 1 in 18, 45-80 LR chamber. I made the Bulls Sight for it. Shoots great!
Another cheer for John Taylor, if he is still taking on work. Bobby Hoyt is legendary but I have not used him.
Years ago, I had Beinke and Beinke of Klamath Falls, Oregon, line a shot-out Trapdoor to .400/.408 and chamber to .40-82. That rifle was a shooter!
Bill, that sounds like a great refresh for a well-worn Trapdoor!
