[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 992399, member: 24284"] If you're paying 'labor' to have a barrel installed, it costs the same to install a mediocre one as it does to install any another. I don't check 'equipment lists', but I do work for a few who shoot, in more than 'informal', competition. I 've never heard one of them mention Douglas. I won't install a 'mediocre' barrel, I'll find a reason to turn the work away. First thing a customer will do, if it does't shoot to his expectations, is "blame the gunsmith!". The barrel is the last place to "save a few bucks". Of course I've barreled rifles with Krieger & Harts and later seen them with dime store quality scopes and mounts, too. [/QUOTE]
