Do you ever stop to think about the question you are asking and what may happen? Thank you all very much, it gives me a lot of options. I think I will lap this winter and see what I get and shoot P Dogs this summer in N. AZ. After that I will ask about what make of barrel to go with if I don't what I want. I still have my 243 to fall back on that completely blew my wife an I away last week. Was doing well with 55 B/Ks but tried the 58 Z Max . Firing 3 shots at a target and moving on to a new target gave us a problem as she could only find one hole, still had 3 test rounds left so why not use same target. Round 4 one hole time to walk 100 yards and see what was going on. Could tell it was more than one so we put a cover on the back side, next shot walk back out yep hole in rear. If you ever shot 9 ball you know what I felt like with the 9 ball sitting in the pocket. Yep choke 6 rounds at .360 my wife says she hopes I get my P Dog gun ready in time.

So your saying if I was to use a Enfield take-off barrel, it would be more accurate and clean easier then any of my Shilen, McGowen, etc. button hand lapped barrels....hmmm, interesting !
Can you share your proof (targets, air-gauged profiled specs, etc.).
And by the way, the Lilja barrel in the video you share, is a buttoned rifled barrel.
Don't put your words in my mouth when the subject was standard factory made button rifled savage barrels. Since we have traded heated PMs in the past I will write you off as being a smart a$$ with a hidden agenda.
Have a nice day and remember what I said in my PM.
