I'm leaning pretty heavy toward the Shilen 20" for $464 on Midway's site, it's 750 gb so it'd be light enough without fluting and I know a guy to thread it. I've had a couple Rem 700's with Shilen barrels and couldn't have been happier. As for Lilja, not gonna spend $700 for a barrel. Also, there may be some confusion on which barrel I was referring to on Midway. They offer 2 different Satern cut rifle barrels in 20" and 24". These were the original 2 I was trying to decide between. I was of the understanding that these are GTG Saami spec true Grendel now. Wouldn't know b/c Satern will not return my e-mail about chamber spec. Midway also has the AR stoner which I believe is Liberty which is made by Satern. I have one of these in .223 Wylde and it isn't worth the powder to blow it hell. So I know what you mean ThatRandomGuy.
