[QUOTE="benchracer, post: 1143357, member: 22069"] I have used Shilens on several rifles and been happy with them. I tend to use Shilens on more budget-minded builds and/or because they can sometimes be more easily available. I have heard more than one knowledgeable gunsmith voice dislike and distrust of Shilen barrels, so that is worth considering. I have Krieger barrels on two of my rifles. They are excellent barrels. In your case, you spent the money on a custom action. Going with a known top-level barrel maker, like Krieger or Bartlein, makes more sense in this scenario. [/QUOTE]
