    I never dealt with them directly but when we complained about the performance we were told to shoot a couple hundred rounds thru it to then see what it does. Wtf?
    Then we hear they had issues with 6.5-7mm barrels but would not replace mine.

    Every good custom barrel I have had, has shot a generic starting load straight away.
    No running in bullshit, they just shot.

    Never run in a barrel in my life and I have had a few. I have lapped a couple due to a bit of coppering but that's about it.

    The extra cost of a cut barrel is less than the cost of a couple of hundred rounds....its a easy decision in my opinion

    You end up using that many cleaning products on the cheap barrel as well so take that into consideration

    Then after the barrel wont shoot the maker blames the cleaning products and how you have cleaned it saying thats why it won't shoot and so it has no warranty

    Spend an extra few hundred at the start and take chance out of the equation
