[QUOTE="HandgunHTR, post: 3016891, member: 126524"] I am pretty much in the same boat. If my livelihood depended on shooting the smallest groups possible, I may have a different opinion, but over the last 10 years of building rifles, I have used quite a few different barrels and either I am the luckiest man alive (which I am definitely not), or makers are getting better. Both cut and button rifled barrels in all of my guns shoot great. All of them clean up well and finding loads for them has been very easy. Some a little pickier than others, but when I say that, the bad groups are 1.2MOA and the good ones are .75MOA. Heck, I even have a couple factory barrels that will shoot better than I can. Long story short, if you have a favorite, great. I am sure that they will continue to do right by you. If you don't, then I am in the "get the one that is available or meets your budget" camp as the odds are you won't be disappointed unless you have unrealistic expectations. The barrel alone isn't going to make you a .5MOA shooter at 600 yards. [/QUOTE]
