I also appreciate how neatly they mark the chambering on their barrels. To me that's an obvious sign of quality work.
Ha! I like to think I was responsible for that. About 10 years ago I raised hell on these forums about getting my pac-nor barreled 257 roberts back with the chambering marked with a stamp, a stamp that wasn't even aligned correctly. It looked like chit to put it mildly. I went on for a month or so about that, it irked me to spend $500 (at the time) and get back a barrel that looked like it'd been stamped by a third grader. A few months later Pac-Nor started engraving the chambering.
So I'm taking credit for them fixing that, whether or not it's actually true.
