[QUOTE="Jud96, post: 1075879, member: 69478"] My cousin has a X-Caliber barrel on his custom .270 WSM built off a Weatherby Vanguard action. His barrel is finished at a little over 28" I believe, and measures 1" at the muzzle with a 1-7.5 twist. His original plan was to shoot 175gr Matrix VLDs but they were out of stock so he ordered some 165s instead. The rifle doesn't shoot amazing at 100yds, around 1/2" but he has shot multiple groups at 700yds that were like 2.5"-3"! I couldn't believe how well it shoots at distance. They are still a small company, but if they gain any better of a reputation and guys start to use more of them with success, I may consider them. You can pick these barrels up cheap on eBay. I believe my cousin Justin only paid like $120 for a blank. The price makes me leery of them, but his shoots, maybe he just got lucky... I don't know. :cool: [/QUOTE]
