BCM barrel questions

How would you guys stack standard BCM barrels against similar offerings from noveske and bushmaster? Also, what markings would I look for in a stripped 16in middy, non-SS barrel?

You cannot compare a BCM barrel against either. A better comparison would be against Colt or Daniel Defense. Bushmaster barrels are nothing special and Noveske barrels are a step above all of them in many regards.

FWIW- we attempted to go shooting today and I was able to put 30 rounds through BCM barrel I used to build my wifes gun. It shot about as straight as anything. Definitely worth the 209.00 I paid for it.

Thank you. Would you be aware of any specific markings which are in BCM barrels? I'm going to purchase one (not from US) and would like to know what markings to look out for

if you go to bravocompanyusa.com and look at the barrel offerings, they often have pictures of the markings if you click on "larger photo".

BCM barrels are some of the best in the business. I would stack Paul's standard or CHF barrels against any other standard barrel any day of the week and twice on Sunday! His SS barrels are extremely accurate too. I've got one of his Mk12 Mod1's and it is a tack driver!
