Hi Ben,What exactly is barrel droop? If you mean when the barrel is in the locked position, I didn't notice any

Yes there is barrel droop, I have my elevation turret adjusted almost all the way up and I have shims in my rear scope rings but after all that it shoot very strong and is very accurate

It is smaller than a wooden whiskey barrel. I found that it does not hold up. It develops cracks and it did not make it through the harsh winter we had this year in my area. I went back to the wooden barrel. Home Depot had a really nice one that looks like a whiskey barrel but is not. Or at least it was never used for whiskey. It is much better in my opinion. Frankly I would not advise buying the Ames one. I always get 5 or more years out of the wooden ones and this fiberglass one cracked within days and I glued it back together. Maybe you are not supposed to leave them out over the winter. However it is very heavy filled with dirt and I did not want to empty it. I always plant a second year in the soil by fertilizing for the second go round and have always had success. I did not like it at all!

Just make sure the barrel is "mostly" empty. Otherwise water could freese and expand and crack your barrel. I reroute the water to a corrugated plasitic pipe underground that daylights away from the foundation.

No. It spins. I think that is by design so you don't disrupt the rifling of the barrel.

I saw it done on the internet by daisy chaining the barrels together. I'm not quite sure of the exact setup, but if you search online, you'll find that it can be done. It looks like they basically overflow from one into the other.

Yes. I'd further recommend getting a barrel with a removable lid so you can reach deep into barrel to affix the legs.

The top of the barrel has a bug screen. I clean it out every few months (but it will depend on what is coming down the downspout). I don't have anything planted in the top, so I drilled a couple drain holes. I have worried about the overflow pipe, since theoretically a mosquito could fly in there, but mine feeds right into a drainpipe. Works Great!

Hi, The one barrel is slightly tapered the other 3 are not, it is hard to tell in the picture.

Given the age of the one I received, I'd quickly say, "no". These are used barrels and would need to be scrubbed inside and out before even attempting it. If that's why you're lokking at these, you'd better look elsewhare.

I didn't find any. I also find the quality of the wood very thin on bottom. It was a good price, but not great quality.M

Dont know about the one you purchased. I purchased 2 of these and the barrel moves to all position including the last one.

Are you located in NYC? I just purchased the grey one however it does not roll well on our hardwood floors so will be returning it. If interested, let me know. Never used.

No! Cuz like vader1971 said it will scratch the barrel I've seen people do this yes it looks cool but don't recommend it.

The ones I just received from 88 Market Street are "full length barrel" and are painted on the outside to match pencil color. Disappointed, as I thought they were short and natural wood. I will have to pay more and buy what I want in a Giant Furby natural wood set.

No.Bars Leak has a specific kind for the head so do a google search for that type.

They can be but the inside of the barrels have been "roasted" which gives off a color and smoke type of flavor. Best for syrup or vanilla extract (my uses). French white oak is best - just make sure they are not "roasted, toasted, charred or cooked" on the inside.
