What or who's barrel would you choose for this project. Current barrel is a Hart, it has served well and was quite accurate. Intention is to continue to shoot 110 Nosler Accubonds. Guess I should add that this is a Sako action rifle, and whom would you recommend to do this work? Thanks  Member NRA, SCI- Life #358 28+ years now!

The 257 AI is/was my favorite cartridge. The longest shot I ever made was with a rifle I built on a 1909 Argie. I sold it after I was offered too much money for a used rifle. I have done a number of rifle barrels in that caliber. With that in mind, that rifle had a Shilen barrel on it. I use a BUNCH of their baarrels and have been happy with them all. No complaints from clients either. Give me a shout and I can give you a quote on their barrel or others as well.

 Jim has done work for me and a buddy and we were both satisfied with quality performance, cost and delivery. Question; why the IMP rather than the standard?

Everyone in the tactical world is shooting Bartlein, and I've seen them shoot a whooooole lot of one hole groups the past few years. Love shooting precision and long range. Big bores too!

One of our esteemed forum members happened to have a barrel ready to go for this Sako, and it's soon to be on it's way. He believes it's a Shilen, fine tubes to be sure. Best part will be making a serious donation to the Wounded Warrior Fund for payment. Member NRA, SCI- Life #358 28+ years now!
