Thanks everyone for all the info. There were a couple barrel makers I have never heard of, but will be checking them out. I really like Krieger barrels. I had one on a .308 bolt gun that I sold about 2 months ago. I will check into the carbon barrels but I cant imagine that they would be any more accurate than a Krieger, Lilja, Bartlein, and so on. Of course I have never shot a carbon barrel and I have shot many of the other custom barrels so I am a little biased. In my experience if a rifle is built correctly then the firle usually out performes the shooter. Also any experience with triggers? I will be purchasing a trigger along with the barrel.
Thanks.
