This video details the meticulous process of manufacturing rifle barrels at Green Mountain Rifle Barrel Co. It covers everything from sourcing raw materials like 4140 and 416R steel to advanced techniques such as deep-hole drilling, reaming, cut rifling, and button rifling. The production emphasizes precision, with critical steps like chambering and crowning highlighted for accuracy, and includes quality control measures like bore scoping and air gauging.

This video demonstrates the advanced gunsmithing technique of counterboring a severely damaged Mauser rifle muzzle. Mark Novak explains how to set up a lathe precisely using a four-jaw chuck and dial indicators to align the bore, then uses a reamer to remove damaged rifling and create a new, safe crown. The process restores the rifle's integrity without needing a barrel replacement.

This YouTube video focuses on a "must-have milling machine add-on."
