Found this mark on the bottom of my LR-308 Barrel.
Looks like an "H" with some sort of flame in the center.

Does anyone have an idea what it means?

Probably my browser screwing things up. Let me try a different one.

EDIT: I can't see stuff posted on Imageshack from work with this firewall.

I looked on my rifle last night, I didn't see anything like you described.

I'm sorry, I should clarify, this mark was at base of the barrel, right in front of the barrel nut, adjacent to the mag well. It will not be visible unless the handguard is removed, or if there is ventilation at that spot. My barrel also has the "DPMS 1-10" marks, I just thought this mark was interesting, and maybe indicative of a more premium manufacture. This barrel does shoot quite well, consistent 3/4 MOA with my loads.

I get at least half MOA all day with my factory cryod barrel so 3/4 wouldn't make it a higher end than their standard barrels.
