I asked about pre-fits in the hunting rifle section but the follow up question might be better suited here. I have narrowed it down to pac-nor or PBB for the 20 VarTarg barrel. The specs will be a stainless 24ā€ fluted light varmint barrel, 1-11 twist, no turn chamber. The pac-nor barrel is $590 and the PBB is $540. I have used PBB on two rifles and I like them, but Iā€™m leaning more towards pac-nor to try something new.

For those who have pac-nor barrels, what are the pros and cons? Any horror stories? Reading reviews, everything I have found is all positive. Any input is much appreciated!
