Re: Penrod Precision

Sure for over a decade. One of the nation's most skilled gunsmiths. Many of smiths we read about right hear at SH don't offer the services that Mark does, routinely. He has barreled actions for the Bench crowd for decades, many top champions use his work. Top notch, you found a BR legend.
Here is a massive blank that Mark turned into a Penrod 25-06. That his modified 25-06 AI. The blank, a Lilja, was custom spun so that the scope rail could be milled out of the barrel blank. That's right, the platform you see there is part of the barrel blank. Yep, the swivel as well, milled. Then? Then it goes from octagon, to round with an invisible taper and then to fluted. SImply magnificent work in all regards. When I bet on targets past 500, this is the rifle I show up with.
Allan Hall Receiver, himself a BR National Champ (1,000 yard) uses Lilja barrels done by Mark. With his Model H (smallest, fewest parts extant)you don't have to move the receiver off to reload, just touch the lever. And get this, no screws or pins on the receiver sides. Incredible.
Mark Wills made the stock, another legend, incredible work.
Have fun, you knocked it! Wait, long. Cost, depends on work done. Quality, I've only ever seen as good.
