[QUOTE="Rich Coyle, post: 1915036, member: 70559"] Here's a little tidbit to follow your post. I had a brand new Savage reamed and a brand new custom Blackstar barrel on a Remington action reamed with the same reamer for my .220 Extremist. Both with 26" barrels. The Savage averaged 4,005 feet per second with fifty-five grainers while the custom barrel averaged 4,300 fps from the same box of ammo. The Savage always fired three shots in the high .3's and the custom barrel hardly ever managed to get below 1" at 100 yards. [/QUOTE]
