The Brux Barrel Making Process
The journey of a Brux barrel from raw material to a competition-winning tube is a testament to the meticulous care and precision that defines the brand:
- Material Selection: Starting with the finest 4150 chromemoly or 416R stainless steel, each barrel is set on a path to perfection.
- Barrel Contouring: Expertly turned on a lathe, the barrel's exterior is shaped to meet precise specifications.
- Drilling: Employing an "oil-through" cutting process, Brux ensures a perfectly centered bore.
- Reaming: A critical step to achieve the exact bore size and a superior surface finish.
- Hand Lapping: Each barrel is lapped by hand to eliminate tool marks, inspected with a bore scope to meet Brux's rigorous standards.
- Rifling: The heart of the process, where grooves are cut to create the barrel's rifling, ensuring accuracy and performance.
- Final Hand Lapping: A second round of hand lapping ensures a mirror-like finish inside the barrel.
