http://www.trackofthewolf.com/(S(erjyugy2aiik0f5520z5y555))/categories/tableList.aspx?catID=14&subID=142&styleID=483

Barrel liners for breech loading rifles & pistols are hammer forged of special Chromium Molybdenum alloy steel, in the U.S.A. Each liner is hammer forged over a special mandrel, producing an extremely smooth and uniform bore of the desired dimensions. We offer these calibers, twist rates, bores, and diameters.

A skilled gunsmith with proper tools can easily install Track's precision liners. Specify the caliber, bore diameter, groove diameter, twist rate, outside diameter, and desired length in inches. We cut liners to your desired length, and ship quickly, typically within 5 to 7 days. Restore your old barrel.

Price is per inch. Specify the exact length, in inches, you require.

I have relined several rifles, Remington Rolling Blocks and Martini's to 45 Colt, 45-70 and 50-70. The two 45 caliber liners are 5/8" diameter and the 50-70 liners are 11/16" diameter. These diameters leave pleanty of material for chambering. The best way to chamber the liners for these rimmed cartridges is to have the front edge of the rim butt up against the rear of the liner and not worry about chambering for the rim itself.

I epoxy the liners in the drilled out barrels and I have some that have been in for twenty (20) or more years with no sign of loosening. When the liners are chambered in this manner a fired or new case can be used to to set the headspace in the rifle while the epoxy is hardening. You can cut any excess liner off after the epoxy is set and face off the muzzle and the liner or you can cut the liner to length before installation and maintain the original muzzle configuration. Extractor cuts are then cut using the original barrel cuts as a guide. This usually can be done by hand with suitable files.

45-70 liners used to be available from Numerich Arms but I don't think that they handle them any more. Recently I have been buying my liners from T. J.'s Gateway Enterprises, 3652 Neltner Road, Alexandria, KY 41001, 859/635-5560. I have been very pleased with them. They are good shooters and he sells them by the inch so you can get whatever length that you need. A caliber and price list is available if you are interested.

This has extended the useful life of otherwise worn out guns without going to the cost of a rebarrel job and maintains all external barrel markings and sight mounting cuts or holes.

Yes, I chamber the liner before installation. As noted before, I do not chamber the rim portion of the case in the liner and that way you can use an empty cartridge case to set the headspace before the epoxy hardens, being careful not to epoxy the case into the liner. A little release agent (oil or grease) on the case and in the chamber solves this potential problem.

The Rifle H&R Never Knew They Had ...

H&R Pardner Shotgun - 28ga
TJ's Enterprise 25-35 liner, 1:10 Twist
25-20 WCF Chamber Reamer
H&R 22 Hornet Extractor
Front Globe - Swiss Pin Post
Long Ranger Vernier Rear Sight
Pope Palm Rest

and one has a nice SS Gallery and Range Rifle

the considerations are: The H&R shotgun barrel will have to be the correct size for the caliber liner and the pressure of the final rifle caliber has to be less than that of the shotgun.

The best liners are made by TJ's Enterprise. No website, so call and get the liners available:

Reamer ... your choice of vendor
Extractors ... Numrich, the price is much cheaper than ordering from H&R
Any front globe. I got mine from Jeff's Outfitters
Vernier, your choice dependent on price. Mine was from Dixie Gun Works
Palm rest ... Jeff's Outfitters has 2 styles. I like the Pope.
Optional: Brass casting for a Schuetzen butt plate. I'm looking
Add: Lathe and milling machine, proper cutters, steel sleeves and 4 Minute Epoxy ... That's It!

PS: The 'new' rifle breech locks up like a TANK HATCH!

cost was $389 without the cost of the reamer ... that was free.

Robert, tis true in all respects, except there is a 'gotcha' ... http://www.hr1871.com/Support/accessoryProgram.aspx
H&R doesn't sell barrels outright ... they have to be fitted at the factory.

I could have gone this way - I have the Buffalo Classic with a fitted 38-55 barrel also. But I chose to go this route just to have another 'complete' rifle

PS: Took it to the range today for it's Maiden:
CCI SR Primer
5gr Unique ... for gallery load
Meister 85gr Bullet
0.002 neck tension ...
velocity - 1170fps
25yds - X's and tight 10's
50yds - 1 1/2" group ... our gallery match range (offhand with 25 ring Schuetzen targets)
100yds - tough on this little peanuts at this distance with 11mph wind - 8" group

The original H&R with the same frame and heat treatment as the shotguns was factory chambered for .357 Magnum, .357 Maximum, .44 Magnum, and 30-30.

The newer 'rifle' frame is only needed for 'modern' high intensity rifle cartridges.

All H&R singleshots have a lot of metal around the chamber as they were originally sized for large diameter shotgun cartridges. Also, consider that the above 'pistol' cartridges are only loaded to 36,000 psi and the 30-30 to 40,000 while its head diameter is even small than the .44 Magnum so they both produce almost identical head thrust.
