Has anyone had experience with these barrels. The shop is in Wisconsin.

Thanks

excellent barrels and Ernie stands behind them.

You will be pleased with what ever you get from Badger. I have five barrels from Ernie.

Badger is producing match grade barrels for the Winchester custom shop. I bought a Win. CS rifle (M70, SS - 416RM)last year. I called the custome shop to verify what the dealer told me about the rifle. I asked about the source for the barrel and she told me it was produced by Badger.

I suppose thats a pretty good endorsement.

I did not have a good experience with Badger.I can't tell you how good his barrels are,because I never got my order filled.After waiting six months for my barrel I called Ernie, and he said he could not tell me when I would get my barrel.I think six months is ample time for a barrel.I canceled my order,and placed it with Pacnor.They promised eight to ten weeks.I had it in nine.Very pleased.

The only barrels that I will use these days is Lothar-Walther, I have used a considerable number of these barrels and they ALL shoot 1/2" or less...

I have used them all and none of them shoot like these do. I suspect I will never use another barrel maker. I liked Pacnor, Krieger, Lilja, but these Walthers are just a bit better IMHO, and a bunch of other riflemakers are getting on this bandwagon.
