Question JC Custom Barrels out of New Brunswick

Has anyone used this fellow's custom barrels. If so, I'd like to hear your observations and feedback. Thanks.

I know two very picky benchrest shooters , and they claim the barrels you mention are way superior to " jury" barrels, I know they have both used Kreigers as well.

I have a pre fit savage one in 300wm, it's excellent, after my first round of finding a load I had 2 10 round groups at 1.05 inches/100m, still a little work to go to find the perfect load

You should buy one so you can give me your opinion. I've been waiting for someone I know to try one first. I was going to put a new barrel on my 223 but after the way it shot this weekend I may hold off a while.

I have one of his first in 30-06 . Savage prefit, very accurate and a snap to clean. Serengeti chamber so the brass takes a lot of reloads. Another nice thing about JC is less wait time and no border hassles.

They don't make 20 cal barrel, the smallest is 22 cal.

I'm in the market, looking for a 20 cal barrel, any source will be appreciate. Hope KS Arm can do it.

I've heard some good things about JC. But...there is a local option in Alberta you should look into. It's Jury Custom out of Red Deer. Bob Jury is the owner. I've had 3 barrels from him. One on an AR and two on precision rigs. Very pleased. Great barrels, very fast turn around, and great customer service.

Just say'n....
