I’ve purchased quite a few barrel blanks over the years, probably over 10,000 from many different companies, Krieger, Lothar Walther, Bauska, Hart, Douglas, Shilan, Lilja, Pac-Nor, X-Caliber, Green Mountain, Wilson Combat, Brux, and I’m sure many others I don’t recall.
My vote goes to Pac-Nor. I’m talking about blanks here, you would still need to have someone good machine it from there.
At one time we made small caliber stuff and the Pac-Nor’s would routinely shoot in the 1’s and 2’s from an AR-15.

Thanks for sharing that bit. I never felt that the pac nor barrels I'd had done by White Oak shot quite as well as Kriegers and Shilens. And the couple of bolt guns with Rock tubes.
That said, the pac nor tubes were never close to bad barrels either. They certainly allowed me to set a few records on some ranges here and there along the way.
