What barrels are you using?

[ARIZONA_F_CLASS]

What barrels are you using? I know F Open guys go through barrels every few months or so it seems.

But FTR I would image will change barrels every year or two.

I have been using Krieger and am really happy with it. I got 3,700 threw it and it's still very accurate. I'm going to get 1 or 2 more when I can.

So what are you using???

Brux.

Currently True Flite, going Bartlein for my next one. I expect 2 seasons from a barrel (3000 - 3500 rounds). Might get 3, but not betting on it

Bartlein
Just ordered 4 more for 2015-2017.
Great to deal with and if they don't all go into one hole it's my fault.
Of course I have a lot of faults... just ask Bev.

Krieger and Bartlein are cut barrels. Are there any other companies that are cut?

[Mr. Ten-X]

Obermeyer, PacNor, Rock Creek, Accy Unlimited, Bartlein, Krieger...all are single point, cut-rifled.

Hart, Wilson, Bear Creek, Douglas, Lilja, Shilen, Green Mtn are all button barrels.

Olympic uses broach cut.

Those are off the top of my head.

I'm a Lilja fan boy. ;D Been through 4 barrels with them and don't have one bad thing to say. All have been extremely accurate. As a matter of fact, I'm waiting on my next barrel for a build I am almost done with!
