and we used his reamer. We had to experiment with the twist rate as a 17 caliber revolver was something new back then. We went from a 12 twist down to a 6 twist before we found the twist the gun liked. I don't really remember the details of it other than we changed the barrel several times while trying to find the correct twist that functioned he gun. Once we found the right twist rate we engraved the gun and if I remember right we put Steve's name on it. Sorry I don't have more details but we do quite a few guns for special folks like Steve Hornady. And this was probably 15 to 20 years ago.
