[QUOTE="idaho elk hunter, post: 1011950, member: 68226"] I know that Lothar Walther does not have the fancy name with the benchrest people but in high stress and heat they hold up better than any other manufacture. They use a alloy that is harder and more resistible to barrel burning. I have several that I have used with 2 of them in the in the 257 Weatherby. The current one is in a 26 Nosler. A good example is the Nosler. The original barrel went out in 400 rds. Then I rebarreled it to a Nitrided Lother. It now has over 1300 rds in it and shows very little if any signs of wear. They are as accurate as he next guys barrel. The best barrels that I have shot are Lothars and Broughtons 5c. On the extreme overbores I always go with Lothars. [/QUOTE]
