    The 6.8 Western, By Jesse Werner

    I have not. I'm a handload only type of guy. FWIW, the overwhelming favorite and best shooting box ammo seems to be the 175 grain Browning Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    BARTLEIN BARRELS CUSTOMER SERVICE EXPERIENCE

    It was. However...my last barrel that went 800 accurate rounds had a long, match throat of my design that offered very similar, if not the same performance as the +P.

    I agree, and thank you. At this point it's whiners and bitchers wanting to stir the pot. Like playing with pigs in the mud if you participate😂😂😂

    BARTLEIN BARRELS CUSTOMER SERVICE EXPERIENCE

    Making a lot of assumptions here and you clearly have a reading/comprehension problem. The solution was sought over several long weeks. In posting this up (which I had no intention of doing) I was finally able to get a piece of my property on its way back and to make others aware of a bad...

    BARTLEIN BARRELS CUSTOMER SERVICE EXPERIENCE

    Knowing that 800 accurate rounds (.5 MOA) from personal experience is possible from a REGULAR stainless barrel in RUM, with the 400MOD I had hoped for 1000 to potentially 1200 out of this one. While I pulled it at 460, it was in all reality gone at 300-350 rounds.

    BARTLEIN BARRELS CUSTOMER SERVICE EXPERIENCE

    This isn't my first rodeo...or barrel. Why would I need to do that when I have years of experience with RUMs on the front end of this as a reference? Very similarly configured at that.

    Sharing a poor customer experience and being "set off" are two completely different things👍

    BARTLEIN BARRELS CUSTOMER SERVICE EXPERIENCE

    There's nothing about this that was new or "experimental". The +P design from Defensive Edge that we are talking about has been around for a long time now. They continue to chamber lots of rifles with this option. Recently, Unknown Munitions has started offering the same design as an optional...

    BARTLEIN BARRELS CUSTOMER SERVICE EXPERIENCE

    Oh get over yourself. There was every opportunity given for this to be handled properly and when it wasn't, I shared my experience in this format. Guess what? At least now I've got my old barrel headed home for some needed measurements. You know what they say about opinions...

    Buddy, I presented the facts. It matters ZERO to me whether you choose to believe those or not.

    To each his own. To me, principle is worth a lot more than saving a couple hundred bucks

    BARTLEIN BARRELS CUSTOMER SERVICE EXPERIENCE

    No one used the word "liar". My point was that I felt this was strongly implied based on the kind of verbiage I received below and the entire tone of the exchange... ”you cooked it to death even at your claimed rate of fire"

    BARTLEIN BARRELS CUSTOMER SERVICE EXPERIENCE

    Buddy, that ship has sailed and I've already explained why. Regardless of whether the barrel was replaced or not, I had a poor customer experience with very poor communication. As stated before, I felt somewhat insulted and essentially called a liar. That's red zone for me and I will not do...

    When can I expect to receive my old barrel back Frank? Thanks

    BARTLEIN BARRELS CUSTOMER SERVICE EXPERIENCE

    Simmer down. I don't disagree that it was wrong, I couldn't sleep at night if I tried something like that. I simply used it as an EXTREME example of customer service.

    BARTLEIN BARRELS CUSTOMER SERVICE EXPERIENCE

    Because it was about the whole poor communication experience, feeling insulted and the insinuation that I was being untruthful in spite of providing documentation. I won't do further business with a company like that. It's a shake the dust off of your feet as you leave type of deal. I wasn't...

    BARTLEIN BARRELS CUSTOMER SERVICE EXPERIENCE

    I completely agree. I could have respected it if they just took a hard stance and said policy on +P is no warranty, sorry. But they added bogus reasons to this and ended up insulting and suggesting I was being untruthful.

    BARTLEIN BARRELS CUSTOMER SERVICE EXPERIENCE

    I'm not grieving. I've replaced lots of barrels over the years and they ALL up until this one, have provided good/normal life. My biggest issue in this whole thing has been the customer service. You mentioned other barrel manufacturers...I have a local buddy who was just sharing his experience...
