Green Mountain Barrel

Having had Lilja, Shilen, Kidd, Feddersen, and now the Green Mountain 17.5'', I think I would have to give the nod to the GM on accuracy. Finally got this build completed and took it to the range today for accuracy testing. This set up is like a laser with SK match. :bthumb: :bthumb: :bthumb:

Ruger receiver with JWH custom bolt, Kidd trigger, Zeiss scope, GM barrel, custom cherry stock.





 
Really nice looking rifle!!!!! What is the deal with the barrel? It looks as if it has a fluted piece added to it from the picture?
 
Thanks gentleman for you kind words. I swapped out scopes and put a Bushnell 6500 4.5-30x50mm Mildot on it and took it to the range this afternoon. It really like the SK in a can. Very impressed with this rifle both looks and performance.
 
I have been working on a Win 75 rebarrel with a 9" twist Green Mountain barrel [for SSS ammo], and I am happy with the barrel quality, and the price is cheap.
I try to do everything I can with Shilen select match stainless, but a few Kriegers creep in. The Stainless cuts like butter, but this Green Mountain Chrome moly steel takes twice as long to cut in the lathe and mill.
 
Havn't tried the RF barrels yet. Got a few CF barrels because of the price. Received the barrels in less than a weeks time!:cool::cool:
Was working on a couple of Wildcats and didn't want to spend BIG $$ on a barrel and not like the results so I went with Green Mountain. One of the better choices I've made in my life. (besides marrying my wife) :DEasy to clean and turning out bug holes.;)
Thinking of an Octagon barrel but in 17 or 20 caliber center fire for another build. Green Mountain will be THE barrel maker!

Im glad you had some luck getting one to shoot, A gentelman at the local gun club also has a GM on his 10-22 and shoots very well. I put a Lilja on mine and it shot worse than the factory barrel that came on the gun?? Finally scraped that money pit and purchased a Clark ready to go, No complaints with that one!!!!
