I have a McGowen on my first starter L/R rig. It took a while to make it shoot and it still does ok and at times very ok, but I'm sure it is me and not the barrel/gun when things aren't ok. That said, the McGowen I have is a PITB to clean. It takes forever! I would be more inclined to go with Criterion or Shilen. I am a fan of Rock Creeks and Brux. They are more money, but I really like both barrels. Just my 2 cents.
