The list was mostly borrowed/based on the great work of PrecisionRifleBlog.com


The intent of the list is to be a resource for those who want precision rifle smithing services like blue printing, accurizing, chambering, barreling, bedding, trigger timing, full custom builds, etc., and not a list of companies that specialize in "Spec'd builds with select options". That isn't a judgement on the latter, indeed their rifles are usually outstanding. Many of the latter builders might NOT want to be listed here because answering inquiries about services they don't offer just wastes valuable time better spent elsewhere.

All- who are the top three precision rifle 'smiths- who offer services- in your states? I've got some in the first post but many states only show one 'smith, or aren't represented at all. (If it's somebody unknown to others, I may not list it)

If I've already listed them- please don't post their names again! thnx

Any recommendations in the San Antonio/New Braunfels/Austin area? The Greater areas of those cities works.

I am willing to travel a bit.
The ones I would consider (personally know) are in uvalde (south Texas armament), Portland red beard), liberty hill (rip) and brenham (di)

There are individuals closer who do their own stuff but I don’t think they take work from strangers.
