Shilen is good stuff, I have not personally owned one yet, but a couple buddies have had them and they were very pleased.
The one Douglas I had shot well.
I have 2 Green Mountains so far. One is proving to be the most accurate barrel I have had to date, cleans easy. The other requires some more testing but so far is proving to be an MOA shooter with factory ammo, and I have confidence that handloads will improve that. this one is appearing to be a bit of a copper mine though. Once I get my lathe I will be buying more of their blanks if that says anything. Most people feel they are on the cheaper end of things, but the accuracy I am getting thus far leans my opinion to them being a good value based on accuracy vs. cost.
I cannot rate the other based off of personal experience as to the best of my recollection I have not owned any of those as of yet, but all of them have great reputations.
