[QUOTE="Buck Fever, post: 1864443, member: 113501"] I'm unfamiliar with any steel alloys that are more than 1-2% lighter or heavier than any others. There really isn't much variation in the density of steels between mild, high alloy, stainless and probably most super alloys. I'm not sure what you saw with the weight of that barrel but I doubt it is what you think you saw. The Green Mountain blanks I have seen look pretty good and the price is low but that price makes it hard to believe it will compare to the $400 blanks used by lots of top shelf gunsmiths. I would definitely use them in guns where groups around 1" are acceptable and budget is a consideration. [/QUOTE]
