[QUOTE="Mike6158, post: 3084875, member: 1039"] I have one of the very early 8.6BLK barrels. I think they mass produced at the sacrifice of quality. Sometimes being an early adopter is a bad idea. There are many other people out there that say the same thing about Faxon 8.6BLK barrels. I have two... both look like crap on the inside. But, the real problem is how thin they are. I'm sure that the barrel whips when I fire it. Heavy subsonic bullets and a thin barrel are a bad combo. 6"+ groups at 100 is unacceptable. I shoot 1/4" groups at 200 with my .20PPC so it's not a shooter issue. I've got a heavy barrel ordered. It won't required the gee whiz Q taper to mount the can either so the rifle will be a few inches shorter. [/QUOTE]
