I called Bachelder’s the other day and told them to just send the barrels back. I’m starting to think this is just going to be a lesson learned about impulse buying. :nono:

I was fine being underwater on a Bernard CH, but it’s looking more and more like I’d have quite a bit more into a Bernard CH with Vulcan barrels than what you could just buy a Bernard CH for.

Thanks to everyone who helped and offered advice.

Sometimes it is best to cut your losses and not pour any more money into a gun. It is a hard pill to swallow, but is wise

I would have Brad clean up the muzzle and then send it to Briley for ultralight tubes, 20 gauge would be the lightest. I would not restore the Bernard pattern at great expense.

Kirk if you feel this way in a month, sell it. You will probably break even or possibly make a profit. Most people that pursue this hobby have paid for there education at one time or another and you are no exception.
