Any recent preferred barrel blanks reports?

Looks like my 6 Creed barrel, 750 Taperless with 1:8 Spiral fluting. I am curious to see how well it shoots now.

Well, got the barrel back and did a quick load work up that should work.
In short…doesnt shoot any better. PBB is sending me a new barrel,so I do appreciate their CS.

I had a question about prefits and barrel engraving. I was told by a gunsmith only a couple action makers who produce prefits keep the lead thread the same so that engraving can be determined correctly.

Who are those couple?

I want to say one was lone peak, but don't quote me on that. I don't remember what the second one was. Impact maybe?

Look here at a 6mm Creedmoor PBB grouping.

I received the dies and Berger 109 LRHT on Thursday and running what Berger recommended starting powder charge, testing for best seating off the lands, it looks very good so far. I am going to re-test to duplicate the .030 off and .060 off to see if it holds again, may go up and down on both of...

Anyone gotten a preferred barrel blank in the last year or so?

What action?

Barrel nut or shoulder pre fit?

Thoughts?

I got one a few months ago. 6.5 cm on a ruger American action has a barrel nut working up loads now

I received the replacement barrel fairly quickly and with no hassle. So a positive for the customer service. I have not taken the time to load develop because I had so little time before going on a hunt. I just picked a load and shot. With no break in, shot 3/4 MOA. I believe the barrel will shoot significantly better once I take the time to tune the load. Probably the best review is that I would not hesitate to purchase another Preferred Barrel.
