- Allan Swan Gunsmithing - Allan and Grant Swan make some of the best barrels around, and Australian made! Allan built my first Big Bore Rifle (a 450 Ackley Magnum) in 1990 and it's still shooting as good as the day I got it. Recently I've been buying their barrels and cannot be happier with how they shoot. You NEED to check out their website and order a barrel for your next project. Massive range of calibres and twist rates, stainless and chrome-moly, most contours and lengths available. They will also send their barrels overseas.
