When you go the extra mile to add the backhanded veiled slap at 3 other outfits whose products probably have never been used first hand, frankly..... bad taste. Well Tim_s, I think that Jim showed remarkable restraint in just a "backhanded veiled slap" in his statement about some makers that I know for a fact that he has "used first hand" and spent considerable amount of time and money in efforts to get the tomato stakes to shoot ! You made a an assumption based upon what, certainly not your personal knowledge, but upon a self-professed expertise on all things related to the current crop of makers. I sincerely believe that your post was the one in "bad taste." Well....nanny nanny nah nah, I'm right you're wrong so there!!!

	Glen & Brent, I want you to know, I live outside the city limits of Atlanta. So far out, I can call myself "Bubba"......... Of course, Bubba would look down on someone who would talk childish............. "Well....nanny nanny nah nah, I'm right you're wrong so there!!!" I should have gone another year of post grad to be able to communicate with an expert in match barrel recommendations.................. Hope to see you both at Raton................JimK

	I don't know that every bbl any of them make is a "tack driver" and as we all know there are at the very least a half dozen other variables involved in driving those tacks besides the bbl. I know that Dale Reynolds made a believer out of me that PacNor has made at least one good bbl when he shot two 250's in the same relay at the Spring Match at EG. And of course convinced me that he is a pretty good shot and reader of the conditions also. - the rimfire - cdpersons

	Rimfire; I've just installed the fourth barrel on my Bench rifle it shoots pretty good but it will shoot 23's on the ring target just as the Breisen,Douglas and Shilen. I agree with you, a lot of things have to happen correctly to shoot those 25's not just the barrel. The old saying" a good barrel-is a good barrel -is a good barrel is true. leadball

	Brent, I'm guessing that with all that powder burning, the barrel is heating up and throwing some of the shots. The first four rounds are in the lower group, right? Then bullet impacts start alternating high & low. The solution is to only shoot 4 shot strings. Keep on hav'n fun! MikeT
