Im looking at re-barreling my latest build to have a stainless precision barrel. I've been reading through some of the most recent threads and have noticed, especially in eurodriver's thread, that the main barrels for this job include Kreiger, bartlein, WOA, Douglas, Shilen and maybe a couple others like Rainier and BCM. What I have noticed is that the majority of these barrels are button rifled with the exception being Shilen. What's the reasoning for this?
Is there a particular reason companies like Noveske and V7 are missing from the convo with their polygonal rifling and match chambers? Is it length? I know they don't offer beyond an 18", but is that a deal breaker?
I should probably mention I'm looking really hard at V7's 18" stainless barrel 1/7", rifle gas, polygonal, match chamber, etc.
