[QUOTE="Dosh, post: 1184713, member: 70363"] 7, in 2010 I got a new in the box Vanguard chambered in .257 Wby for next to nothing. My son's friend who builds offroad race cars took the new unfired barrel in with some of his parts to Cryogenics International in Scottsdale. With practically a free rifle and free cryo I finished modding the rifle and have shot about 250 rounds. I'd guess a .257 Wby would fit your "barrel burner" description. I had a smith friend bore scope it last Nov and he said it looks great and the throat is fine. Not many barrelmakers use cryo but have never read where it will harm velocity, accuracy or barrel life although some say it doesn't help. My barrel is easy to clean, but so are my Mark V non-cryoed barrels. Last I checked it was $70 for treating there. [/QUOTE]
