    50 bmg chamber work?

    hello- Is there anyone on here who can chamber and thread a 50 bmg barrel for me. The threads are 1-1/2-12. The barrel I got for my 50 project was not properly threaded so it will need to be cut down-chambered and threaded. I will cut the barrel down and send it to you. Please pm me on price. I have the experience to do this kind of work but no tooling.... I would like to get this done before July 4th...

    Who's the barrel manufacturer? You should be able to get them to thread it fouls properly.

    IME, requests like this usually mean the barrel was acquired second hand. Good luck OP. I don't know any 50 smiths, myself. Maybe to be found on the FCSA website?

    Try Precision Machining in OKC, Dan's boy might be doing that work, or could do it for you.
