[QUOTE="ShtrRdy, post: 2325448, member: 40852"] Earlier this year I replaced the barrel on a 22- 250 with a Krieger. (I've been using Bartlein or Krieger) I had a heck of a time getting it to shoot. After I did all the things Krieger suggested they were willing to replace the barrel. From Krieger FAQ on website: Depending on the nature of the problem we ask that the customer take some steps before calling. First, if this is an accuracy issue try changing to a known good scope, tighten mounts, rings, insure stock bedding is proper, action screws are properly torqued, try different bullets/loads/seating depth etc. If all of this is checked and tried, then have the gunsmith that performed the work on the rifle, or another gunsmith check that work. Many times an accuracy issue is the result of a poor crown or a chamber that is not straight, or simply an ammunition issue (see the Proper Reloading Practices article above). If all of this has been checked and found to be proper then you are more than welcome to send the barrels to us for inspection. We do require that if you send a barrel back to us that you supply the original serial number that was on the barrel when it shipped. This tells not only that it is a Krieger Barrel but also other information that will be helpful to us when investigating your problem. As a last resort I tried another different bullet. This seemed to basically work. However, in hindsight, I haven't really proved it out because I was tired of messing with it. I should probably get that rifle out again and see if i really have a load that works. [/QUOTE]
