Black hole weaponry vs AR performance barrels

[69mach]

I'm looking at getting an AR barrel in 6mm predator or 243lbc . They, from what I understand, are the same thing. The 6mm predator is a 22 inch barrel from ar performance. The 243 lbc is a black hole weaponry or now Columbia river arms 20 inch barrel.
Out of the 2 barrels which is of better quality. I think they are both button rifled, both 1 in 8 twist, both have muzzle threaded and both about the same price. Id like some feedback on velocity with a 105 or 107 gr bullet and accuracy of these barrels, thanks

I shoot a BHW with the polygonal rifling
1n10 twist 24" gas gun.
6x45 pushing 70gr pills 2950fps
Puts 5 under a dime. Nosler & Berger
Going to try 85 & 90 gr next.
I dont think you can go wrong with their barrels.

Are they made to the same quality sine their name has changed?

That I wouldn't know. Aren't they still made at the same facility? Sorry I can't be of more assistance.
I can tell you I'm very pleased with the barrel I have.
The polygonal cleans up nice n easy too.
I'm contemplating going to a adjustable piston system over the direct impingement.
It's taking longer to clean BCG than barrel.

Yea I get that. I've been shooting ar rifles suppressed for a few years now. Shooting Suppressed is just a pain to keep stuff clean

They are the same company and the same people. They are just using the name of the parent company to simplify branding. People seem to really like their barrels, but have no experience personally. I have heard the owner interviewed a couple times on a podcast.

I have a BHW .264 LBC Barrel with the polygonal rifling. It shoots better than my Howa Mini Action. The barrel is 20" SS and it cleans up very quick. I really like the barrel.. Have heard some negatives about some chambers being rough and barrels sent back but you hear that stuff everywhere too. My experience has been very positive.
