Sorry if this has been discussed before in other threads but I've searched Google and can't really find all the information I'm looking for. I also so two threads in this forum that talk about them but nobody really gave their impressions and/or experience with them.
@IraqGuns.....I saw in another thread that you had picked up a couple of these barrels and couldn't wait to run them through their paces. I searched through the rest of the thread and didn't see you post your thoughts on them. Did you ever get around to running them and if so, what were your impressions?
As some of you know, I've been mulling over a barrel choice for a month now for a current build I'm working on. I knew I wanted to do a RECCE or an SPR but I figured the RECCE would work better with a Vortex 1x4 I already own.
Anyway I was just offered a good price on a brand new Rainier Select 16" Black Oxide with a new Rainier XTC Comp for $250. The questions I have regarding these barrels are below.
- Does anyone know where Rainier gets these barrels?
- Can I expect better accuracy than my Chrome Lined BCM ' s, DD' s, Colt and Spikes?
- If you own one, has anyone put a high round count through one and if so, is it still as accurate as day 1?
- Paired with a light rail such as BCM ' s new KMR, do you think the combination would still be light enough for rapid target acquisition and carry?
Thank you in advance for your replies. Sorry if this stuff has been covered but I really tried my Google skills to no avail.
