Free prefits

They have their own prefits. I’m running a remage 1-8 twist 308 from their sister company outlier. It’s shooting great, several sub moa groups across several charge weights and different powders. Nitride treated, 1.2” straight taper diameter heavy flutes. Hand lapped with a lifetime warranty if you shoot out the barrel Mike is going to replace it. I’m going to put together a 300 prc with one soon.
What load are you shooting in 1:8?
What Velocity?
What barrel length?
Im curious about their barrels.
26”
178 bthp and eld right now, probably around 2700ish I haven’t checked velocity yet because my magnetto sporter won’t work with the 1.2” barrel profile. I picked up a CED millennium 2 chrony to get velocity with, just haven’t found the time.
I might give something on the 200-208 grain range a try in the future.
I’m pretty happy with the way it shoots, no wait time was a major plus..
$100 for that warranty. I'd want to know what/who is the gauge of "shot out" condition.
1-8T is the only twist offered across the cartridges listed. Weird
I'm at $510 shipped with a barrel in the cart and they were giving these away free?
My shady as fuck meter was pinging while I was on the site. Like, I can imagine it would be a similar feeling to ordering gas station sushi a la cart...
Yep, I reiterated that several times with the owner and he said yes if you buy the nitride treated barrel which I did.
I would like to say, I did appreciate your post about Arken advertising shill accounts. I couldn't get the FUDS on Accurate Shooter to believe me. LOL Fuck them.Like an “everlasting gobstopper”, but for barrels…
28 Nosler...Wonder if I can get that lifetime warranty on a 6 PRC?
Yup, if you buy the nitride treated barrel. Any cartridge they have a reamer for if the barrel is nitrided. Believe me when Mike told me he was going to give a lifetime guarantee I had 100 questions like the ones you’re asking.Wonder if I can get that lifetime warranty on a 6 PRC?
How the fuck do you know it’s a piece of shit company? Did you try one, or are you just a fuckin blow hard? It’s a fuckin barrel and it shoots. What makes that a piece of shit?
Go fuck yourself, I could care less if you like the company, my barrel shoots and I’ll probably buy more. I did the smart thing and reached out to the company and got a response from the owner. It’s a fuckin barrel company you fuckin spoon fed cunt.
I’m getting the feeling you might not be able to afford a barrel because your education is lacking and there for you can only buy things with food stamps. They might take them not sure. Your paranoia of everything being a scam is also reflective of antisocial personality disorder. Same with your lashing out at strangers. In short, you’re a fucking tool.

Not bad at all with about 20 rounds down it before shooting this work up. All 5 shot groups.
178 bthp with accurate 2460 powder which is a little fast. I have no doubts it’ll tighten up with 4064 or varget.
Fuckin scammers! Even used their piece of shit optic.

The thing about Nitride........people think it turns dogshit steel and dogshit machine work into magical unicorn horn. I have no idea the quality of either from the Outlier barrel company above.
However, if your feature selling point is a lifetime guarantee on a budget-priced consumable item......I am inclined to doubt the longevity of the entity providing it.
In my experience, I can tell you that multiple PSA nitride AR barrels are just hardened dogshit.

Yeah I’ll probably never get to judge the barrel life of this particular rifle because it’s a 308. Lol
Hell I can build that 22-250ack for pdogs now. I figure if I get 3 prefits full warranty I can just rotate them out annually.
I've seen a number of 10k+ 308 trainer barrels. These were nothing special...... top shelf stainless cut rifled. Towards the end they were holding barricade practice accuracy.

I'm as budget as the next guy......just make sure expectations are appropriate.

Of course, I never said nitride is bad. But some people see it as a cure all, especially when applied to barrels.
I know a few trustworthy people who went down the nitride barrel route and they came to the conclusion it did make the barrel last longer......but it took about the same amount of rounds to get the barrel shooting back to before treatment accuracy.
I figure nitride barrels have their place......just not in precision rifle.

anyone else get their barrel? Saw another free barrel sale and I may have to get in on the free barrel
I ordered one yesterday, ordered a 22 inch stainless 6.5 Creedmoor. I ended up emailing them back to see if I could change my order to a 16 inch nitride fluted barrel. We will see if they get back to me.
Possibly if a barrel starts life as nitride it settles naturally. I got some nitrides that are constant balls on shooters. Comparable to my premium handvlapped 416R stainless jobs.
Doc, where are you seeing free barrel sale? I see nothing on the Arken or Outlier web-site?
