[QUOTE="tbrice23, post: 1497158, member: 59502"] Northland Shooters does not make barrels, they are an authorized dealer for Criterion and Shilen . I've had multiple Savage barrels from ; Criterion, a 7RM is amazing ,over 1100 rounds and still shoots .4 moa or better and looks pristine under my borescope. A 6.5-284 that I was very unimpressed with. Criterion seems to last a LONG time. Multiple Shilen Select Match barrels, no luck with them... I'm done. I'm trying out a couple of PacNor now in 270wby and 6.5 wsm; one is getting broken-in the other will be here Friday... will update later. Several Mcgowen, my 28 Nosler, 26 Nosler, 300WM has been the fastest amd most accurate on average than any other so far, they just can't read well, the last one was supposed to be a PacNor #5, came in FULL BULL .955 at the muzzle !!!, sent it back and came back as a Mcgowan #5 not PacNor #5:mad: . One cut rifled Bartlien from a sponsor of the site, they used a PTG reamer with the wrong shoulder angle, threaded too far for a large shank and a recessed crown cut WAY too deep, he owes me a favor on the next barrel but am shy about cashing in the favor.
