Bob Sebold said:Brux barrels sucks, service is terrible. Stop using them so I can get mine done. I have to bring Norm liquid refreshments now and order Ken stocks or they don't even let me in the door. I do think they have a couple national records with my name on them hanging the office. I recommend for my own benefit that everybody stay away from them. James Croft can tell you about the lousy service. I would like to be able to go someplace and just buy what I need without having the mandatory wait and all you guys do is slow me down! Honestly though, I couldn't begin to play this game without Norm Brux. Every time I come up with some stupid idea he makes it work. No one better in the industry and a true friend to many many people. Ken is kind of hard to deal with (hope he reads this). You will see a Brux barrel at or near the top in Raton.
Have your bore scoped a benchmark? I have a brux going a 30 cal build but want to also give benchmark a try on my 6.5x284. I have heard they are the finest finished barrels made, just wondering if you can confirm that or give me your opinion of them.johara1 said:I just bore scoped three new Brux barrels and the finish is the best i ever seen. No tool marks,I think some of the others should see this Quality Brux is putting out....... Yes they hammer....... jim

Bob Sebold said:Dearest Erik, please see other thread, I know what your using. Just shot today, won't scare you with the details but bring your A game. And remember, excuses are like butt holes, everybodies got one.
Thanks Erik, have you borescoped a krieger, bartlein, and brux? How do the finishes compare? My gunsmith (who primarily builds f-class rifles) recommends benchmark, brux, and krieger but also like bartlein.Erik Cortina said:barnesuser28 said:Have your bore scoped a benchmark?

I have never seen a benchmark or owned one, but I can tell you they are not winning any matches in F-Open. Krieger, Bartlein, and Brux are the top three.

Thanks Steve, just what i am looking for and expected.sleepygator said:[br]barnesuser28 said:Thanks Erik, have you borescoped a krieger, bartlein, and brux? How do the finishes compare? My gunsmith (who primarily builds f-class rifles) recommends benchmark, brux, and krieger but also like bartlein.
I've borescoped all three and they are comparable. None show tools marks, all are uniformly lapped and they all shoot well.
