This is the video I have needed to see for a long time. I have a single shot 50BMG rifle stock I need to inlet for the barrel. A local gunsmith did part of the work some years ago but had to retire due to bad health. The stock is roughed out. Its inlet for the receiver but the barrel channel is cut shallow. Im a machinist. Not a wood worker. Wood freaks me out. Lol. Thanks for the tips on how to fit the barrel. I started this project back in the last century. 1997 I think. I am the Master of Unfinished Projects. Self appointed.
English Gunsmiths use a small oil lamp to soot the barrel then tap the barrel into place as you did, this leaves a very clear indication where more material needs removing! You probably already knew this but just in case here you go! I am thinkning of trying to make a Stutzen full stock for my old Air Rifle to try to make it a bit different so these video's are invaluable!! Thanks from the UK
Very nice series you've got here. I have been into building mid to late eighteenth century flintlock rifles and foulers. Inletting for swamped barrels, a feature present in many American rifles of the late eighteenth century is a real challenge. These barrels are smaller in the middle than on the ends. For me inletting the barrel is always the most challenging part of the build.
Nice job! Similar to the way I did my Winchester 1895 carbine stock. I did the barrel inletting using an oil lamp and half round scraper and sandpaper wrapped around a dowel.

Needed this. I'm going to follow this process for an 1891 Argentine.
Great work, just ordered me two gewehr 88 commission rifles from hunters lodge for the same kind of project
