Mcgowen Barrel Reviews

I have 4 profits none had headspace issues... all tikkas. I would be very disappointed if a $1000-$2000 custom action did not work with a prefit. I have friends that use smiths I also have a lot of friends who go the prefit route. Never heard of any of my friends having issues. The only issues I have heard of are with McGowan prefits.
 
I take it back.

I think i'm sending this one back too. was messing with some things again today and unless I am slamming things open and closed on two different lots of eldm its a struggle to open and close the bolt. the fatter ojive black was even worse. marks on extracted bullets show things likely only getting worse the more I shoot and this is only after 20 rounds through it.. My same saami spec 6cm PVA and PBB don't have marks like this with same lots and will open and close fine running the bolt slow or fast
just to update I sent the second one back along with some videos showing the issues jamming up chambering rounds. McGowan made it right, gave me my money back.
