Apparently he was training an assistant and he left it to the assistant to run the reamer unsupervised and the assistant somehow ran it uncentered and for lack for a better explanation scooped out a portion of the chamber and screwed that grendel bull barrel up, in trying to come to an agreement the gunsmith said he could ream the barrel to a 6.5 creedmore but then Id have to start a creedmore build I wasnt planning on doing , anyone have any experience reaming from a Grendel to a creedmore ?
Yes.
Throw out the ruined barrel and buy a new one.
Or, let a 'gunsmith' try to turn it into a Creedmoor barrel, ruin it, charge you as much as a new barrel would cost, then refuse to return your money when you find out just how badly he ruined it.
