Douglas barrels

[Spike A]

Wanted to give a shout out to Douglas barrels and @Stan Taylor , got a barrel from him and the thing is very nice.... break in rds with no load development were 3/4” and less... almost zero copper fouling... on top of that Stan is a stand up guy and was/is very helpful went way above and beyond what he needed too

Good to hear! Douglas barrels are made in my home state so it’s nice to see them doing well.

I have 3 and I'm very satisfied with them. One, a heavy varmint, is on a Rem 700 and shoot sub 1/2 moa.

I contacted Stan a while back. Douglas barrels will be the company I go to when I finally get around to getting my 225 Win. Model 70 re-barreled. I even thought about getting a faster twist, but not sure if it would be a wise move or not.

I have had excellent luck with Douglas Barrels. Currently my 2 PRS (243 win, 22 creed) rifles have Douglas Barrels have been very accurate and reliable.

How do Douglas barrels generally compare with the usual match-winning barrels: Bartlein, Lilja, Shilen, etc.?

Stan barreled a CZ 527 in 221 FB a few months ago and it shot 3s when breaking it in. Great guy and a great smith.

I've been to his shop, very unassuming to say the least, I had a hard time finding it! LOL Nice guy with a LOT of wood (the engraved kind) on the wall.

I,ve dealt with Stan 3 times.He gave me what I wanted,and what he said he would do.He is knowledgeable and honest..
The quality of his work is second to none.The quality of what he sends out the door,is as good as you can get.

Stan is going to need larger hat after all this.

Stan barreled a 257 RobertsA for me. Would ask nothing better for a field rifle. I have family who retired from Douglas. It was a great place to work.

 

[Stan Taylor]

We appreciate all the kind comments! We're here to help and hope to be here for the future shooters too!

Hey Stan, do you remember making this one? It is one of four FTC SS 7-08's I ordered from you back in '07. When ordering this particular 24" sporter I forgot to mention it was to be a #3 Remington contour. Totally my fault. You sent me this #3 barrel with a shank which required some minor in letting. My first test load was the Hornady 120gr. V-Max and moderate charge of Varget. In under 20 shots fired getting a 200M zero with this load, I put 5 shots inside a nickle.....at 200 meters.

It now has 2161 shots on it with that same load. Still shoots just as good, too. I put that M700 together with 6.5-20X Leupold just to use at the Gateway Dynamite Shoot. It was always used at the offhand shooting line. I lit up many charges over the years with it including numerous "doubles"....(two booms in a row). I was the first ever to hit the 500 yd. offhand dynamite target with that gun. KABOOM on the third try. Won a nice gift card to a famous local shooting emporium for that hit.

I will forever miss the world famous Gateway-Unaweep Dynamite Shoot.

I forgot to mention that the other three barrels were fantastic shooters as well. The 26"#5 and other 24"#3 remained silhouette competitive for about 6600 shots each. They were pulled in 2018. The 26" #6 has 2825 shots to date and still prints little groups at long range.

Dynamite shoot in Gateway postponed

The show isn't over, it's just postponed for now.
