[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 218056, member: 8843"] From what I understand its the same basic idea that Obermeyer and Rock Creek use for their 5R rifleing also Broughton uses it and calls it a 5C rifleing. its basicaly a standard land and groove desgine with one of the corners of the lands "canted" so to speek. I have never used any of Shilen's "ratchet" rifled barrels but have heard that they are soft barrel compaired to some others ,I have used Rock Creek 5R's and Obermeyer 5Rs with great success ,they do give a little more speed , I can't say that they clean any better than any other top end barrel. Lothar Walther makes some nice prefit barrels for the Shilen actions also. [/QUOTE]
