Best line of the whole interview in regards to barrel break in!
Eric - But do they really need to?
Ken - ...... No.
I loved it Eric, thank you so much for everything you do for the shooting community!

"Why 4 Grove?" "Because it works" 😂  how do you argue with that....

Eric, you are amazing. You basically walk-through the entire manufacturing process of arguably, one of the the best barrel maker.  excellent job.

I ordered a barrel about a year ago because of Erik. Love it!

I just screwed on a Brux barrel on my FTR rig and the first shot out of the barrel was dead on bulls eye. I was impressed. This is gonna be a good one I think. I hope Norman is passing on all his knowledge for future generations. It sounds like he IS the business. Thanks Erik.

We used air gauging at Gates Rubber Company in the late 90s and into the 2000's for our engine pulleys. I machined the Chrysler and GM water pump pulleys on a metal forming machine( hub spinners/ cup spinners, and then they were machined on Mazak machining lathes . They then were checked on multiple air gauges for bore and several other outer measurements . This shit amazes me even to this day!  26yrs later and I still machine metal the same way 🤔

Ken is awesome, always helpful

I love these small companies that are on top of their trade. Just specialties  very few people can make. That’s awesome. Thanks Eric for sharing this

"there's always a back log"... fast forward a few years and its now pretty much tripled.

Now I have 7 weeks and 54 minutes to wait for my barrel. LOL
I greatly enjoyed this video.  It's great to hear how much care is going into the fabrication of my barrels. It makes the wait a little easier. Thanks guys.

I love brux barrels! All the one's I've had. shot amazing in my service rifles.

Fantastic Interview! Great stuff Erik!
Best Part - 46:38 - On "Barrel Break-In"
Erik: Do they really have to do that? (Shoot, clean, shoot, clean)
Ken: No, but it gives people confidence. (Makes them feel better.)
I cackled just like Erik.

I'm sold. Honest old school owner on the front side, mad scientist old school owner making magic in the back, 5 employees, hand lapped, single point cut rifled. Works for me.

I'm going to try a Brux on my next 6mm project. I have 3 Kriegers and 3 X-Calibers.
Time to expand the stable. I think the quality of a Brux is probably right there with Krieger or Bartlein but without the 14 month wait.

Thanks Erik, another great interview.  Your channel may be the best platform for answering the question "why do barrels speed up".  Looking forward to you "figuring that out".

Brux makes a darn good barrel. Two of my bench rifles wear Brux. Love em no doubt.

Very happy with Brux and Kens service has been fantastic. Will be getting more into Canada in the future.

Thank you for doing these interviews! I learn something every time I watch one. I hope to see the barrel making process, from start to finish, in person, some day!

CORTINA THE WIZARD!!❤🧙‍♂️🧙‍♂️🧙‍♂️🧙‍♂️

My barrel is 45 days out, can't wait

Great interview. Love the technical interviews.

I’ve had a good number of various barrels but I’ve had two 7mm 1-8 barrels and so far they are the two most impressive barrels I’ve had so far.
