Anthony Ward of Crown Ridge Barrel Works. He does excellent work and has a fast turnaround.

Northland shooter supply may have some too. But I use Manson gauges.

Call Manson. They will get you straight.

I got it from Brunos

I run RL15.5 with 108 Berger. 33.6 grains gets me 2930 out of 26" gain twist. I have also run N150 with similar results. N550 or N555 would be options as well.

Weighted version would be the ultimate solution.

Manners TCS stock with weighted arca. Berger 144 long range hybrid target, federal match primer and RL16. I was running near max at 2885 but I have learned they run better / more consistent 1.5 to 2 grains under max which is typically 2775 to low 2800s. H4350 works too but I think RL16 is better.

GRT - Gordon's reloading tool. I have been running barrel times for a while. People still poopoo it. I put the QL, barrel times and what Bryan Litz told me about finding a safe max and back off 1.5 to 2 grains into one model. I look for the barrel time about 1.5 grains back, typically the...

You really blow this out of context. And the rest of the post that was posted with the picture for context: "This is what happens when you use a brush with an abrasive cleaner! I've posted this picture several times and it never gets old as to what can happen! This was a 7mm (284W) F class...

Not really, that was while using abrasives in the barrel and a brush. Will it do that, I don't know. But the post was specific to using abrasives with a brush, not a brush alone.

I think I saw the same picture. Maybe someone else reposted it with no context. The original photo was shared by Frank Green of Bartlein Barrels. The info on it was someone used an abrasive in conjunction with the bronze brush, not a bronze brush alone. Context matters.
