Henry Rempel
Please note spelling = Rempel
I had the great pleasure of meeting and watching Henry work (installing one of his muzzle brakes) with his lathe, he is a true machinist, his F class rest is elegantly engineered, his smithing well respected, and he is a gentleman.
Good Luck, YMMV.

I used to have a similar type of gunsmith back in the early 70s in downtown Calgary on 9th avenue.Cant remember the gentlemans name anymore. Both good smiths and gentlemen to deal with.

Earlier maybe ? there used to be a gun smith across from the train station when I was a kid. quite the unique man and place, He had guns in there I've never seen since and didn't realize what they were until long after.

Rempel bi-pod
If you don't have the Rempel bi-pod then you're not living.
It's worth every penny !

Henry designed a fantastic Bipod that is commonly used in F/TR. It is a fantastic bipod for the range, but not for a hunting rifle .

Another shout out for Henry, great guy!
Just did some work done on a barrel, a highly talented, knowledgeable and skilled Master of his trade. Excellent work and reasonable prices.

I have one rifle put together by him. It’s just a simple rebarrel of a Tikka. Bought it second hand. But it’s noticeable how good his work is from that one example. If I were to get a rifle built or rebarreled, he’d be my first call.
