So do you ask about the steel before each purchase or is every one just a $700 gamble?

There not gonna tell you.

It seems to be a trend. If you chamber a lot you should have an idea. This is why I always order from a few.

They wont even know until they get feedback and by then it may be too late.

Out of curiosity who supplied your last batch of bad barrels?

It changes. They are at the mercy of the steel. Dont fall in love with one.

This is also true about actions, steel, SS, and titanium.

No one but some are better than others

All actions can be fixed so this is not a problem if you go through them like you should.

So what happens to the "B" grade barrels? Not trying to bust your hump, just legitimately curious.

Luck of the draw. You dont know how good they are until you shoot them.

Just wondering do you think most custom actions get verified ..QC before they ship?
Or is it a 1 out of 5..or?

In my experiance, the finished product comes down to the smith. What he lets out his door is his business.

Brux,Hart,Krieger,Benchmark is what I have used the most. But being in Canada with importing and availability I've changed to IBI barrels. So far they've been fantastic!

 

[Prieto9000]

I don't know why? They are excellent barrels.

Mostly quality inconsistencies. Some are great and some are not.

How do you have barrels that have never been in an action that shoot ragged holes? I'm a little confused

A little late on the response I bought 4 military barrels from shotgun news that were new still wrapped in cosmoline never barreled up . My dad and I built 4 custom 7x57 mm mausers using those barrels they all shoot lights out.
