Regarding the better barrel, we'll see. Tightest group I've shot with his BA barrel is about five shots, about .75" at 100yds. 123 Hornady Black. See group #3 at the upper right (below). FYI, these this target shows my first shots out of the barrel. Worst is about 2.5" or so, but the conditions where terrible. My ammo was cooking in the sun, warm day in the desert. Dumb. I think that messed with the burn rate. Spent cases where flying farther than usual also.
I have several batches of workups to try when shooting season starts again. (For me it's Fall.) Various powers under 123gr ELDs. So that should be a good test.
But if I do feel the need to replace this barrel, I was thinking of one of the PF 750 barrels. 20" also, since I got into Grendel for longer range shooting exclusively. So, same as what I have now but arguably better designed and made.
