[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 203980, member: 2736"] Happ I use Shilen a lot for barrels and they shoot great. As to having them barrel your action I would agree with james that a good gunsmith would probably be best.Not that Shilen would not do a good job. The only thing that might make a difference would be the time it takes some smiths to get your rifle to you(some times 1 to 2 years) where as Shilen would/could probably give you a shorter delivery time. If shilen has the barrel I need in stock then I normaly order from them, if not then I use Lilja . Lilja barrels are as good as they get and the delivery is the best of any barrel maker. I have used many other brands of barrels (hart,douglas,kreiger and others if the client requested with good results . I dont think you can go wrong with a shilen if they will give you a good price and good delivery date but I would check around first and see what others offer. Good luck on your build J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
