| Installation of the WhistlePig
Bull Barrel:
1. Requires
a new bull- barrel stock or modify factory stock;
2. Fitting
the new barrel into the receiver should be a snug fit.
The barrel end (shankis machined slightly oversized. If the
barrel is anodized, it will add thickness. If too tight, first
oil the shank, bottom of the barrel between the V-block and
shank area and where the barrel fits into the receiver side. If
still too tight, sand the shank with the supplied emery cloth
strip, sanding the shank evenly around. Do a little
sanding at a time. Oil the shank and receiver port again and
try to insert the barrel into the receiver. If still too tight,
repeat the process;
3.
Re-install V-Block with Allen-head
screws with an equal amount of torque;
4. Re-install
barrel and receiver in the bull-barrel stock with the bolt in
the locked position.

| Cleaning the Barrel Liner:
Use a cotton swab or patch with solvent and
push it through the bore with a cleaning rod or a weed-wacker
line with a cotton cloth on one end. For wire, we recommend a
BoreSnake.
|
| Cleaning Matte, Brushed
& Polish Finishes:
Matte Finish - The barrel is glass beaded to produce a
matte finish. Gun oil is applied to the barrel prior to
shipment. If you get any smudges or fingerprints on the
barrel after the installation, apply some additional oil with a
soft cloth and then remove the excess oil with a clean, dry
cloth or wash the barrel with dish soap and a soft brush and
re-oil.
Brushed Finish - use a 3M Scotch Brite #07447 (maroon
color) or steel wool to renew the finish and re-oil.
Polished Finish – to renew the shine, use
a Mag/Aluminum Wheel polish (like Mother’s brand)

.17 HM2 Recommendations
Based on User Feedback:
We recommend only Hornaday and CCI V-Max brands. We
do not recommend using Eley or the Remington Premier Ammo
due to a different and higher propellant cartridge which may
cause ruptured casing. The EABCO weighted bolt handle was
tested with all factory components. We do not recommend the
use of a soft polyurethane bolt buffer. This may disrupt
the cycling and cause cartridge jams. An auto bolt release may
also lock the bolt open after every few rounds. Re-install the
factory bolt release. Clean the barrel (liner) at least every
50 rounds.

| .17 HMR Recommendations
Based on User Feedback: Due
to a timing issue, we do not recommend the use of a soft polyurethane bolt
buffer Use only the factory steel buffer pin or a hard
polyurethane pin. Weak guide
rod spring (bolt handle part) and hammer spring may also need to
be replaced. Clean the barrel (liner) at least every 50 rounds. |
Disclaimer: All caliber barrels were
tested with factory receiver components unless noted otherwise.
Any third-party replacement parts to the bolt and trigger assemblies may
affect the functionality and performance of the barrel.
