[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 134465, member: 8843"] I haven't heard one good thing about Pac-Nor's Polyognal barrels. I think that they are button rifled and in order to do this the steel has to be soft and from the reports I've heard they are indeed soft. The benifit to the Poly rifled barrels is that their are only flat side to "grab" the bullet and no lands and groove to wear down over time. I have only ever shot one gun with a poly barrel and that is H&K's PSG-1 and it shot great with a reported 5000+ rounds through it the owner said it has not had any accuracy changes that gun has only been fed Federal Premium Match ammo in 308. I even offered to clean it to see how that was and it cleaned out great. That weapon is a very nice shooting system and I'm sure that the p[oly barrel ads to that , but I still would never pay $9000 for the rig!! If I wee gonna give the poly barrels a try I would definatly go with a Schnieder as they are the only ones I've heard any positive things about [/QUOTE]
