They are alive and well. Call, write or e-mail for questions. Unfortunately, they have had a horrific history as a result of the first sale of the company to an outside concern.

From their site:
AccuMax II rifle barrels are button-rifled by Lothar Walther to BlackStar specifications. All AccuMax II bores are electropolished & tapered for superior accuracy, interior ballistics and reduced fouling.
Lands are .0035" to .005", depending on caliber.
