    need airgun barrel re-crowned.

    I have 2 entry level airguns that I would like to have re-crowned to help improve accuracy.

    Anyone have the proper tools in the Ottawa-Gatineau area to perform this service?

    Thanks.

    Thanks for all the info Sean.

    After watching your video and reading the link you sent me, I think I am going to try this myself :)

    I had the grinding wheel and red/green polishing compound already.....but I had to go out to Rona to grab some of these...



    Any tips/tricks for screw size selection for a .117 barrel ( I bought 4 diff sizes to cover the gambit ;) )

    Perfect

    That's why I posted that video. Most people are not looking for "match" grade.

    Select the screw that is over half buried in the bore.

    Have fun
