The Importance of Steel Quality

At Krieger Barrels, we understand that the foundation of a superior barrel is the quality of the steel used. Our rigorous selection process involves providing the steel mill with specific requirements, accepting the higher costs for superior material, and conducting heat tests on each lot to ensure compliance with our stringent standards. Through continuous testing and collaboration with industry experts, we've perfected our steel composition and heat treatment process, ensuring that each barrel, whether stainless steel or chrome moly, meets the same high standards.

Our Rifling Process

Our barrels are crafted using the single-point cut-rifling process, a method known for its accuracy and precision. This painstaking process involves removing material at a microscopic level, ensuring perfect concentricity and uniform twist rate without inducing stress into the steel. Our commitment to excellence continues with our barrels being lapped post-reaming to eliminate tool marks, and hand-lapped after rifling to improve the finish, reduce fouling, and facilitate easier cleaning. This attention to detail results in a barrel that not only meets but exceeds industry standards for smoothness and accuracy.
