TJ Barrel liner .25 7/16 od Ever hear of them?

did a little google search on it...first hit was this: http://castboolits.gunloads.com/showthread.php?t=100990 still not enough info about them... here's a real short description, and a phone number dont know if it'll work, its from a post back in '08... "...11/16" OD hammer forged liner from chrome moly steel. Phone number is (859) 635-5560". i saw the same phone number from a post from '10...it'll probably still work. apparently Track of the Wolf (airgun builders have used ToW liners for .32's) buys alot of his stock from T.J.: "...Now I see why the price was higher, Track has to get their markup. Why go through a middle man when you can buy direct from the source and save money... It looks like track has a markup of $.94 per inch. That should cover their overhead and shipping to them and make a little to put food on the table... They said that Track does buy a lot of liners from them." I dont know if this'll help out at all, but i thought id put some info together for you...i was bored. the overall vibe from all the forum posts ive seen is that T.J.'s stuff is pretty darn good. little pricey since it's by the inch- but i guess that's how they do barrel liners. ive never heard of re-lining a barrel, but it looks something people are doing, and have been doing for a while. again, hopefully this helps.
 
you know, i just had a thought- maybe this'll open up the floor to some kind of "hybrid barrel"...since we're not dealing w/chamber pressures and the like, maybe people would get these barrel liners and epoxy them into an aluminum sleeve (if they wanted a heavier barrel), or even a steel sleeve...to make up a specific weight for a given rifle class. or just leave it as is. i dont know, my mind wanders a lot.
