I've had a lot of barrels. We reload. We've had $175 wilson barrels shoot tighter groups than bartlein barrels. Its not common but it happens. Higher end barrels in my experience just tend to be more forgiving when doing load development. Easier to find loads that shoot well.
If your shooting...
It's hard to beat the taperless .750 barrel from preferred barrel blanks. My son's tikka weighs 7lb with scope. We love the .22 Creed
