Your Safeguard When Turning Barrels With Finished Crowns

0.545" OD, these brass cones take much of the anxiety out of lathe-turning a perfectly good barrel with an already finished crown. Insert a Barrel Saver between the muzzle and lathe or mill center before fluting, chambering, polishing, or threading for a muzzle brake, and you can rest assured you won’t harm the rifling or ding the crown. Each brass cone is machined to within .0002" or less concentricity, making using a Barrel Saver as accurate as direct barrel contact against the center. With a Barrel Saver, you virtually eliminate any chance of swaging the rifling. It stays seated and will not spin in the bore when the barrel is chucked in the lathe.
