how many rounds did you have threw the blued barrel? is barrel life shortened a good amount? thats a big thing for me because i go shoot a lot. how much is a good stainless barrel?glenn asher wrote:Savage's stainless barrels seem to clean up a little easier than their blue barrels, for that reason alone, the stainless VLP might be more fun to fool with. (I just bought a new .223 barrel for my FV .223, and it's stainless, to replace the old wornout pipe, I expect it to be easier to clean, too).
also, is it true fluted barrels are more picky with ammo? i read that they are pickier because of the harmonics of the barrel, or is that off in perfectionist land? or is sub moa, with the vlp, more than acheivable out of the box with factory ammo.
