[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 2984952, member: 4191"] I have a Bartlein CFW that has one deeper groove than the rest also. It shoots worse than the K&P. Didn't find out about it until I bore scoped the throat and saw groove cutter scars extending the length of the throat on one groove. After a Gunsmith dial indicated the lands and grooves and confirmed the obvious, I contacted Bartlein and sent the barrel in for examination. Mark told me it wasn't possible for their equipment to cut one groove deeper than the others. Told me the bore met their quality control criteria. And never offered to replace that blank. So if someone believes Bartlein is failsafe... and wants a CFW barrel chambered in 40-degree 338 LAI, threaded for the 1 1/8" BAT HR threads at 50% current retail cost, send me a PM. Low round count. Less than ~150 bullets fired. [/QUOTE]
