Canadian Barrel Makers
All four of the barrel-makers mentioned (McLennan, Gaillard, Smith and McPhee) make world-class, benchrest-grade, hand-lapped barrels using the finest steels. Period. They are comparable to Krieger, Lilja, Shilen, etc. -- the finest U.S. custom barrel-makers.
Ted Gaillard, - Gaillard barrels. He makes only stainless steel Match grade button rifled hand lapped barrel blanks in various contours up to 1.25" x 32 inches long if required.

Can anybody add any comments to any of the barrel makers listed above? All the above is what I've cut and pasted from other posts on the topic. I figure we can get this updated, cleaned up, with decent comments on each maker and finally convince a moderator to sticky this info.
