Throttle fixes everything. If it doesn't fix the problem, it’ll end the suspense.

A friend has an MGM barrel in 375 win and it cuts cloverleafs at 50 yds (his intended range)

Go with match grade machine and you won't be sorry. I have a 358 Win and a 260 rem. The best price you'll find is at edstc.com

Bullberry less expensive than a MGM? Not from what I've seen.

Blueberry also requires the hanger bar forearm.

Another vote for Match Grade Machine.

SSK Industries is also a good company but the last time I checked, which was quite awhile ago, the available contours of their barrels weren't the same as T/C which meant you couldn't use a standard forearm.

MGM and let Mike Bellm chamber it. That's as good as it gets.

Thanks for not laughing at my spelling error. Obviously, it should read Bullberry but my auto correct thinks otherwise.

I have several MGM barrels and know them to be very accurate and well made.
