[QUOTE="was21, post: 204334, member: 7474"] My recommend is to shoot the factory barrel first and if it does what you want.... be happy! You will also learn a few things about the gun that you might also want to change if you decide to go with the custom barrel. The customs [if properly installed] should pick you up some accuracy, and usually always, as previously noted in other posts, be much easier to clean. The other benifit that hasn't been mentioned is that in my experience you will pick up velocity gains[maybe 100-150fps ] over a factory barrel of the same length. I have a 20" 308 Kreiger barrel that actually shoots 40-50 fps better than 2 other 26" barreled factory tubes with the same load. A definite added bonus and a much handier piece in the woods. FWIW Wes in AZ [/QUOTE]
