[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 926397, member: 12995"] Chris, I agree whole-heartedly. My old smith (who has since retired this year), always praised Douglas XX Air-Gauged Match barrels. But my new smith (his protege') likes Krieger or any of the big names. Both have admitted that just about any big name barrel will perform excellently, provided the smith is worth his salt... Will the Benchmark barrels hold up to the hotrod 6.5's better than the other brands? If so, why? Also, do yall offer a 5R rifling option? For the record, I ask this in a non-biased question, as I have limited interaction with the big name barrels, when it comes to the big names in barrel mfg's. So, please don't take this to offense, this is a genuine question. I would love to try one of yall's .264 barrels in a 1:8 twist Rem Varmint/Sendero barrels for my Browning .264 WinMag build, but I am unaware what the wait time might be? Do yall offer a LRH member discount? I have heard nothing but excellent reviews for yall's barrels, and would love to try one out...Which is why I ask. [/QUOTE]
