Barrel Swap

Anyone using a .308 barrel from Numrich Gun Parts

They make for good hunting barrels, but you are never going to win any matches with one, you wouldn't even score.

I hunt swamp bottoms and prob wont be shooting over 100 yrds so I felt comfortable putting one on my striker but haven't shot it yet - my concern is that when I put the barrel in a lathe to cut threads for a muzzle brake it had some run out or some would call it warped but the bore itself looked to be true - just wondering if this is normal .

Yeah normal. Indicate to the bore, ignore the contour. factory built barrels are not dialed in real tight when they do the contour so always indicate to the bore.

I have threaded many factory barrels and almost all have a fair bit of run out. Don't worry about it too much, just indicate to bore, turn down the end and thread away.

Thanks bootsmcguire I feel better about it now .
