If I was gonna slap one, I'd hope it was a bitchy one but for .41 moa at 317 I'd commit to slapping almost any nun period. I could look them in the eye and say the Lord made me do it so that I could do God's work...
I think he was asking about Creedmoor not ARC velocities. I only clarify because I'm interested in Creed velocity as well in the 14.5" length
16” 6.5 Creed RTR
That's actually pretty good, especially for the price.
I’ve been happy with it. It’s a relatively lightweight, inexpensive 6.5 creed barrel. My SR25s outshoot it but they are several times more expensive than what it cost to put together this upper. I run it with a KAC PRT suppressor and it’s been extremely reliable.
Berger loaded 130s. They used to load them hotter but were popping primers.
I had MOA expectations and got what I expected. It's a $350 barrel from a maker who knows how to property gas and finish a barrel. If I wanted a barrel that shot every bullet more consistently I would pay the $700-$800 and wait 6-8 months for a Bart
I like both of mine. They shoot Hornady Black 123ELD’s .75-1moa lot to lot. That’s about all I can expect from them with box ammo. I’d expect more from a developed hand load. They’re gassed perfectly. Function has been 100% suppressed and unsuppressed. Neither string shots when they get hot. Velocity has been on par with any other 18” Grendel barrel I’ve chrono’d with the ammo I shoot. Both clean up easily.
This is where I'm at as well, but I've also paid for the top shelf stuff to discover that doesn't mean you get a half minute barrel with factory ammo. This Craddock has performed nearly as well as any other large frame gas gun I've shot with the exception of a couple Knight's rifles and one Larue. I've owned several more expensive barrels that could not hang with the RTR.
