[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1523064, member: 10291"] I have owned and shot both. With a quality custom barrel like the the Kreiger IMO, you will be hard pressed to see a difference in accuracy or ease of cleaning. I find myself generally ordering Kreiger 4 grooves simply based on the excellent results I’ve had with them, and Kriegers long experience in producing these exceptional barrels for the Bench Resters. If I were buying a factory Remington 700, it would only be in their 5R barrel. Not so much because of the fundamental difference in rifling design, but because IMO, there IS a difference in the in the production quality, performance, ease of cleaning, and visual appearance of the rifling when bore scoped initially, and, after 2000+ shots are put down the tube.
