Boy everyone want's other's to tell them what the best of whatever is. Be better to ask other's what to avoid! In barrel's I'd doubt there are many bad barrel maker's, they wouldn't stay in business long! Only custom barrel I ever bought is a couple Shilen Match grade barrels. They probably shoot better than I do! I got them to say I have them and they do shoot pretty darn good! I think if I was to do it again though, I'd go with something like a Douglas. Less expensive and still probably shoot's better than I do! Now were I thinking competitive barrel, I sure as h*ll wouldn't get on most internet sight's and ask the common man what the best barrel is! No offense guy's but most of us are hunter's that shoot like hunter's!
