Does a gunsmith know when a barrel will shoot?

[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 3070094, member: 1521"] In the big shooting world, most people cannot load develop to a barrel's potential. There would need to be a bunch of qualifiers on that for a known result. XX brass, powder, primer, bullet, at YY range, off ZZ resting(sand, heavy sand, bipod, etc), and temperature range. There are not many who do it, but I hold the highest respect for gun builders who shoot their builds and show you directly what they get from it. Quarter Minute Magnums comes to mind. Awesome business model. As far as looking at a barrel for best attributes, I doubt anyone knows what will [U]assure[/U] fantastic -vs- average. But if anyone does, go ahead & think I'm crazy for this; I believe Loather Walther would know. I think they're the only barrel maker capable of the measure, and of actually reproducing it. They just have no reason to do it. [/QUOTE]
