[QUOTE="JTB, post: 2205398, member: 97196"] I just gave Preferred barrels a try for the first time and it was everything I needed for a PRS build. $265 base price. It is shooting the 131 Blackjacks at 1” at 200 meters. I was impressed that it had no visible copper build-up during break-in. I fired two, 2-shot groups and found no copper when cleaning, so I shot a 10-round ladder and still no copper. Dialed it in at a mild 2800 fps using RL26. Every bit as accurate as the Bartlein I pulled off. I currently have barrels from Bartlein, Hart, Douglas, Proof, Green Mountain that I fitted to a mini-14 (and now Preferred); they honestly all maintain great accuracy but Preferred stepped up and sent me a great shooter very quickly so I thought I would give credit where due.
