My 0.02:
1. Get a 16", for hunting and fun it's plenty and the 2" extra don't give you as much as you think.
2. The group buy is first to consider.
3. Don't think you'll find an Odin at your price range, BUT... ArmorAlly has ballistic advantage 18" (Even fluted for less wt) or Faxon match 18" for around $240... final price shows when you add to the cart. BA's come stainless and hand-lapped like interior, smooooth and shiny.
4, JoeBob's has faxon gunner 16" barrels, they shoot smoothly and real well, mine does anyway, even nitrided. I roger the comment as far as some mfrs and their nitride processes, some barrels have too many scratch-makers in the chamber that are difficult if not impossible to get out.
