My custom build proved that hand-fitting a barrel isn't always a bad idea
The factory barrel was too tight for the receiver. I carefully filed it down and now the action is buttery smooth.

Been there, feels great when it works.

Heard an old timer say that hand fitting a barrel is a lost art. He told me it takes a steady hand and good eyes. Too many people now just swap parts and hope for the best. Your success shows that careful work still matters. I always worry about taking off too much metal, but you did it right. That smooth action is proof of skill.
