I've never owned a prefit Savage EABCO barrel, but I did buy a couple for a TC Encore before I discovered the switch barrel Savage platform. I would rank it as a step above a factory barrel and similar to a Shaw barrel in terms of accuracy (0.5" - 1.0" MOA). They did not foul as bad as a factory barrel. They did not shoot as tight or clean up as easy as the Savage Pre-fit Shilen, McGowen and CBI barrels I've tried and own. Of course, that could be because of the limitations of TC Encore design and factory loads. Others can chime in, but IMO you'd be happier in the long run with a CBI barrel from NSS for about the same money. And I don't see many EABCO barrels being used or sold by members of this site.
