Best barrel mfg. IYHO

Ok, like the title says . Who makes the best .450 barrel. I have a low end BCA, seems to do the job well , but I would like a high end tube for "reasons". :D

My pick would be Gryphon, every 450 barrel has shot lights out with about everything we tried.

Currently playing with one of their 224 Valkyrie and it's just been amazingly accurate.

I've got 2 BCA 450 barrels that are very accurate, and my cousin also has one that's accurate. I've heard of some problems with BCA products, but I'm happy with mine.

Check out Tromix and X-Caliber. Both are excellent high quality barrels.

You have to specify in your question, such factors as cost and lead time. All the high quality barrel manufacturers like Bartlein, Benchmark, Lilja, Broughton, Brux, Krieger, etc will make you a 450b AR or bolt action barrel that will be second to none. The price tag :shock: and lead time reflect that however. As a BR shooter, I can testify to that.

Hi Al,

Hope you are doing well. Just saw your post about our site. Just wanted to let you know we are still operating and we do have barrels in inventory. We had to shut down our website since no credit card companies will allow us access. If anyone were to let me know what they are looking for through the board I can get them a price and try to figure out how to get paid. Just send me a PM or e-mail through this board.

Regards,
Dave
Gryphon
