Heck, it was never my intent to come off as close-minded. Your advice is always welcome as that of everyone else on this board. I've read a number of your posts, including those on DOM barrels in other threads, and that's what spurred me to make this thread.
I was hoping to sort out what manufacturers/suppliers produced "Barrel Grade" DOM, vs which products to stay away from. In that regard, you've helped quite abit.
As I stated in my original post, I know where I can get inexpensive (albeit short and highly nontraditional profiled) RIFLED barrels that are of trustworthy quality.
This probably should go in a different thread, but the Gunsmith Special Raw blanks from GMRB (The_Link), is there any reason they couldn't be used for muzzleloading projects? I know most of the ones listed are rather short for anything then pistol barrels, but would the rifling twist be to much for muzzleloading?
If they made some in smoothbore and double the length I'd gladdly pay double the price...
