Douglas XX Premium Air Gauged Stainless Steel Barrels - Any Good?

[Xtremetj]

I was in the market for 6.5 Creedmoor and happen to find a Remington with a Douglas XX Premium Air Gauged Stainless Steel Barrel.

Are the Douglas barrels any good? I've never heard of them? Just curious...looking for a way to pick it up if it's worth it.

Thanks!

Douglas has been around forever. Their XX Premium Air-Gauged barrels are excellent barrels.

+1 one of the been around forever makers. I have had a slew of them and all shot well.

I put a CM 7mm-08 featherweight Douglas on a 98 action years ago, and it shoots well.

Have one on a 25-06 for 30 years with no complaints

I had one on my 1st semi-custom. It was inexpensive and shot really well, but was a copper magnet. Cleaning it was a huge pain.

I'll not buy another. There are better choices in today's market.

As other said they do shoot but read bottom of this page

For what it's worth,
I had an action sent to Douglass and re-barreled with a SS XX barrel. I ended up shooting out the barrel trying to get it to shoot P.O.S.!!!!!

On the other hand,
My gunsmith chambered a CM savage prefit for me and it is way more accurate than I ever expected.

They all spin bad ones I don't care what they tell you.
