[QUOTE="Bullwhacker, post: 2487367, member: 77346"] I’ve had 4 Proof barrels on the following calibers: 257 Wby, 6.5-284, 6.5-300 Wby, and 28 Nosler. All took close to 200 rounds to break in and achieved moderate accuracy with more than average time for a custom barrel. Accuracy is acceptable but I won’t buy another due to break in and load work challenges. I’ve had equivalent or better accuracy from other custom makers without the excessive break in. Not saying they are a bad barrel by any means, just not the holy grail some claim them to be in my experience. [/QUOTE]
