Looking to build a new BPCR. The barrel makers I am sued to going to are now out of business. So who is making 45-70 and 50-70 barrel blanks?

Krieger is my preferred. Greem Mountain is a little cheaper and have good reviews.
In addition I hear Al Storey makes a good one. Borschardt Rifle Co in NM.
In addition to those already mentioned McGowen builds good barrels
Lilja and Pac-nor are good also. Hart was a top name but dont know if they are still in buisness. I have a Mcgowen on my one 3-55 its a great shooter. Also dont overlook douglas or shilen Ive had good performers with them also.
I have kriegers on my service rifles, very good. A lilja 3 groove on an ar. A pac nor. douglas, hart,mcgowen, and green mountain. My broschardt repo has an A Story 45 barrel on it its a great performer, his barrels are chocked also.
Green Mountain has very few in stock and to be honest I can understand their code. I just want a barrel blank, but a 3.5 taper, or what ever all this means. Thanks, I will Try Kreiger.
