Need help to identify a barrel

[D-mon]

Hi,
I have a custom barrel that was taken of a second hand rifle and I am trying to determine who could have made it.
It is chambered for 308 W. It is stainless steel. the twist is 1 in 12" and the rifling has got 8 microgrooves which is a bit unusual. And it is definitely not a a factory barrel as it as an heavy BR profile. And the land are 0.3014 which is on the Large side of a .300 barrel.

Thanks.
Regards.
Nic

8 Groove sounds like a Shilen.

Or possibly Lawton.

I had been told Shilen but was not sure they were producing an 8 grooves barrel.
Thanks.

No I do not know. It had been chambered in 308 with a very wide chamber and was fitted onto a P14 action.I am about to rebarrel an Howa action with it except I will be using a 308 match reamer and we ll see how it shoots.
