King Rifle Barrels??
Found a custom rifle which appears mint from the pictures however in the spec run down he listed a King Barrel. Anybody got any info on King barrels? I have found nothing thus far!
The gun is a LH custom Mod 700, laminate grey stock, action trued/bedded/pillared, timney trigger, SS King Barreland leupold DD bases/rings chambered in the 35 whelan. Price 875.00(landed) Other then the barrel I amnear sold. Hesaid he'd grant me a week after receiving the rifle to give it a once over before cashing the check. (lives several provinces away!) Thoughts??
Thanks

RE: King Rifle Barrels??
Since you are in Canada,the barrel is most likely made by Bevan King who operates in Canada.King barrels are not well known,and are considered by most people to be medium quality barrels.
