Carbon Fiber Barrel Blank

What is the best bang for the buck in carbon fiber barrel blanks nowadays?
I’m thinking about a Sendero contour 12 twist 22 barrel finished at 22”.
 
Price wise they are all pretty similar, give or take a 100 bucks or so. That being said Proof is the name in the game and what all others are compared to. With the clientele I have, long range light weight hunting crowd, I can say I chamber probably about 80% Proof with a few others thrown in here and there. I can also say all but one has shot really well and the one didn't was still sub MOA. Proof Barrels seem to be more widely available as well from a few different online vendors.
 
We have 2 Proof Barrels, in my Family, One is, a 6.5 PRC on a Savage Lite Hunter, the other on, a Tikka T-3X in 7mm PRC. Both shoot, Sub 1/2 MOA, 5 shot group's,.. after Tweaking,.. the Load ( Powder ) and Bullet "Tune".
They ARE, the "Gold Standard" of, C F Barrels,. Like, Stomp 442,. said.
