This is news to me. For the longest time Krieger wouldn't do chambering work at all.
But because of the equipment that they have to operate with in their method of barrel making as opposed to machinery required to pull a button through a barrel, they should know how to operate the necessary equipment and be familiar with the processes you list.
Remember, it is one thing to make a barrel. You can always say that you put your heart and soul into the thing and your smith messed it up. But .... when you do the entire package, you have no one else to blame. My guess is that since it is their name on the line, they will do it right.
Just make sure that they understand what your desire for services are going into this project because in this day and age they are NOT automatic simply by getting a barrel change. Make sure you ask.
