Picked up the 21” 243 yesterday. Didn’t take long to notice the wavy contour on outside of barrel. Not anything like the others I have. I called and already have a return label from Devin at Barrett.
257,
The barrel is wavy?
Yea....like it wasn't turned down smooth. Has about 4 ridges and valleys from the front of the forend to the muzzle. Sorta' like you had a squib and then fired another round......4 times (LOL). I didn't run a patch down the bore, but I'd bet it's okay. Just didn't turn the barrel down smooth on the exterior.
I'm positive they will either fix it or replace it. And I'm not in a hurry as I have others I can shoot.
