Thanks! I suspected there was a reason for not much talk about Pac-Nor. I am very happy with the 20 Caliber barrel they sent me a few years back.

The fuzzy negatives in the quoted link don't have much in them beyond arm waving. The complaints might be nothing more than snob factor because of their theIr relatively inexpensive prices. It would be nice to see some definitive accuracy information.

For example, some folks are ecstatic with the sub 0.5 moa I get with some loads in my light barrel but get turned off because the wrong load turns on 2.0 moa. The large group was caused by the the load but I have turned in some that were almost certainly caused by the shooter. On the other hand, some demand a barrel that can do 0.2 moa when they and their equipment might get 1 moa on a good day.

Blessed are those who have the skills and equipment to actually use a 0.20 moa barrel at its potential!
