Barrel matter. LOL. Most advice would be better Dispensed here And ok at best is exactly what pacnor was hopefully they rebuild modernize and kill it with a new face. Would never wish a gun company such pain.

I have had a dozen Douglas barrels and got 2 bad ones. I have had 4 ER Shaw and all have been spectacular... I have had 5 Montana Rifle Co. barrels and they have been very good. I had one Adams & Bennet and it was very good. I had one Brux and it was good. I have had 3 McGowen and they are ok..... That's all..... Me to but itβs an old pic and I only have five left.

Too fhuqking funny! I heard the Fence Hopping Dueling Banjo's,before opening the Thread. Always a hoot,to have cross-eyed Droolers "unleash" their very WELL founded Insecurities and swoon Dinks,Rats and Retardation in no particular fhuqking order. Hint. Congratulations?!? It always pays,to go the extry mile...especially with 1913 MoMo's. Google it. Hint. Laughing! Key is CAREFULLY packaging the works. Hint. Laughing! Happiness is predicated upon clear/concise communications,with particulars articulately stated PRECISELY,so as to avoid confusion. Hint. Laughing! Always prudent to conceal wares in a Reupold Wrapper,to deter them without. Hint. Laughing! Weather is tough,with a Monsoon/Hurricane,so I'll not expect it back in much more than a week. Hint. Somebody better get crackin'! Hint. LAUGHING!.....................

Who do you guys like for a good barrel maker with a reasonable turn around time and decent prices? Lots of good barrels out there but that turn around can vary greatly. I have had good luck with Lilja for within $25 of Pac-Nor's price and equal or faster turn-around. I will not deal with Hart again. What they shipped isn't what I ordered. Essentially I asked for a .75 muzzle on a 700 shank. They sent a #6 straight taper. Despite me sending back the email thread with our discussion about what I wanted, they would not stand behind their mistake and got very abusive. I tucked tail and had the gun built to their specs, not mine. That was my 2nd failure, double regrets, because it wasn't what I wanted and it did not shoot well. Tom

I have Brux, Bartlein, PacNor, and Lilja and all have been screwed on right and shoot. I like to just buy from Bugholes since they have a pretty good selection in stock and I hate waiting. If I want a contour Bugholes doesn't carry I will order it from one of the manufacturers direct. I just ordered a barrel from Lilja less then 2 weeks ago, Melanie just called and told me it was done and she was shipping it today. Wasn't expecting that quick of a turnaround but I will definitely take it.

Inquiring minds and all that ... ? Turn around and customer service was exceptional just not impressed with how finicky it's been. Rest of the platform is perfect. Wish accuracy was as impressive as every other aspect of the rifle. I'll go Hawk Hill again next time.
