I found this in the benchrest forum. I thought that there may be folks in this forum that would would be interested in this, specifically the competitive and varmint shooters who have a barrel that is a real hummer and would like additional life for a particular barrel.

This a post on the thread
I talked to Joel last night about this process. He was a very nice gentleman that was willing to answer any questions I had. He did this after his working hours and he called me back on his own phone. To me, since I do not know Joel personally, that takes care of the question "well, who the heck am I sending my barrel to?" As far as the process - he did mention you can not recrown or rechamber after this is done and he recommended doing it before any firecracking started. In terms of accuracy - he said it won't hurt or help - it just makes it last longer. Stainless Steel takes a different "recipe" than Chromemolly but the process will work on both. Hope this infomation helps.
