[QUOTE="chris matthews, post: 63442, member: 66"] As a professional rifle builder I have built on all the above barrels and would put them in the order as follows: 1. Broughton- for the reasons mentioned above and because they are very accurate and CONSISTENT!!! 2. Kreiger- very accurate but they seem to wear out a bit quicker. Have built 3 7mm Dakotas on them for our own Len Backus. 3. Lilja- good reputation for making good barrels 4. Shilen- Don't like 'em, never have, never will. At best a mediocre barrel in my opinion. Not bad, just not the best. As a footnote- Tim North runs Broughton. Dave Kiff runs Pacific Tool, which is who I am guessing 308 nate got mixed up. [/QUOTE]
