Brux Custom Cut Rifle Barrels are produced by Brux Barrels LLC, a machine tool company located in Lodi, Wisconsin. They specialize in creating high-quality, custom-made, cut-rifled barrels for a variety of shooting disciplines.
Key aspects of Brux custom cut rifle barrels:
- Manufacturing Process: Brux barrels are made using the cut-rifling method. This involves pulling a single-point cutter button through the bore to create each groove individually. While slower than other methods like button rifling or hammer forging, cut rifling is known for producing very precise and consistent rifling with minimal stress on the barrel steel.
- Materials: They typically use high-grade steel, including 4150 chrome-moly and 416R stainless steel, which is double stress-relieved for enhanced stability and accuracy.
- Precision and Quality Control: Brux emphasizes meticulous quality control. Each barrel is bored, reamed, and then hand-lapped to achieve a mirror-like finish and precise tolerances. Barrels that don't meet their high standards are reportedly discarded.
- Customization: Brux offers a wide range of options for calibers, twist rates, contours, and lengths, allowing shooters to tailor the barrel to their specific needs and preferences.
- Reputation: Brux barrels have established a strong reputation for exceptional accuracy and are a popular choice among competitive shooters, particularly in F-Class and PRS (Precision Rifle Series) events. They have been used to win numerous matches and set records.
- Experienced Craftsmen: The barrels are hand-crafted by experienced machinists who are also avid shooters, understanding the critical role of a high-quality barrel.
- Customer Base: Their customers include competitive shooters, discriminating amateur and match shooters, dedicated hunters, and sportsmen who demand the very best in their firearm components. 1
