Same as my Sako 223 with a Maddco. They are as good as any barrels made anywhere.

Which proves exactly what?

Chambered in 6x45, coming from a sub-$500 Stevens rifle, with no bedding. :P :P

If they made a 35cal ... perhaps I'd find out how good they are?

Better than Kreiger? PacNor? Shilen? Border? ... they're all just tubed steel with spirally stuff. :P
