VULCAN RIFLE BARRELS

Vulcan is a small precision Engineering Company specialising in rifle barrel manufacture and deep hole drilling. Deep hole drilling is where the depth to diameter ratio is greater than 10 and up to 200... There is an argument raging in the rifle shooting world over 'Buttoned' barrels verses 'Cut' rifled barrels. Almost 99% of all rifle barrels produced today are 'Buttoned'. With good process controls, both types of manufacture yield similar results. The 'Cut' barrels running twice to three times more expensve to produce. Vulcan can supply cut barrels for those special 'one off' restoration Jobs where the barrel is an odd size and/or has a unique rifling form, or where the swaging process is not an option. Vulcan produce only the barrel blank, and not the whole gun, so these parts do not constitute a gun part and are exempt the usual export and mailing hassles.
