Has anyone had any experience with these barrels good or bad? The specs seem good.

I went ahead and ordered one, what the heck. They're on sale and you get $20 off on top of that plus free shipping.
Thanks for the info. I'm ignorant as to who proof research is. I know the barrels that Brownells sells are mad by Satern, and they have a pretty good reputation, at least when it comes to their other calibers.
No, they don't. They make their own and do button and cut rifling in-house. I've done a tour of the facility, but see: http://proofresearch.com/the-product...steel-barrels/
I wouldn't touch Satern with a 10 ft pole after their Grendel debacle (had issues with two I purchased from Alexandar Arms that were manufactured for AA by Satern). Google if interested.
Though I don't have any experience with the .308 and I never owned a Saturn barrel, there are afew running them in NRA Service Rifle, match rifle (in both AR15 platform and bolt action) and they seem to perform well.
To the extent that I was thinking of using one for a Precision build.
I use a Krieger Barrel on my service rifle. It is excellent. After seeing two of the Saturn's single point cut rifling perform, I thought that I would give them a try myself.
