[QUOTE="Engineering101, post: 1163164, member: 63138"] So I get this new varmit contour Brux barrel in 22-250 Rem with an 8 twist to be used for prairie dogs and such out past 400 yards. I swap the barrel onto one of my Savage Model 12 short actions, load up some 80 grain Match Kings and head to the range. Starting with a clean cold bore it shoots the attached 3-shot group at 200 yards. I thought I had missed the paper on shots 2 and 3 for obvious reasons as it looks like only one bullet hole from that far away. I am embarrassed to say that I know very little about Brux barrels even though I now have two of them. Both barrels shoot really good. Also both barrels pick up zero copper no matter how many rounds you put through them. I'm thinking one of those things may lead to the other or vice versa. My question to all of the Brux afficianados - how do they do that? What is different about Brux that they pick up no copper ever? My factory barrels won't do that nor will any of 3 other custom brands including my Kriegers. What gives? [/QUOTE]
