has anyone tried ballistic advantage barrels?

I'm assuming that all aero barrells are made by BA from the start?? They look very similar with similar marking. If. This is the case, any reason one would by an Aero barrel over a BA? I have 2 aero barrels and have not received a reply from Aero yet as to the source of manufacture. The Aero 11.5 is 175 and the BA is 145 and another 10 percent off that. I like the Aero barrels I have, but for this next build, if they are coming from the same place, I would pick up the BA to save some coin.

It's been suspected but never admitted or proven as far as I know...

I have the 18" SS SPR, 12.5 Kino, and 11.5 govt. Profile. My 18" SS matches and occasionally bests my 16" Afghan with same ammo. I'll take picks to prove it this weekend. Ammo will be Sierra Gameking.
Great barrels for the money.

I've got one at least B A barrel not had any problems with it. Way over 5-6 k ammo shot. 2009 mfg. at the latest don't remember what year I bought it other than before moving to Alabama.

Mine came in yesterday. Superficially it looks good. Finish was nice and nothing obviously wrong with it. Gonna be a while before I can say anything more useful than that...

I have a BA 18" 1:8 that shoots 1" 5 shot groups at 100 yards using MK262. I'm very happy with it.

Ordered late on the 12th and got it on the 17th. Couple days of weekend in there slowing things down.

Mine arrived yesterday. I ordered it over the weekend. It looks good, and the pinned low pro looks good as well. Obviously looks aren't that important, but it'll be a while before I get some rounds through it.
