Outlier( arken ) barrels

[MTNGUY]

I was wondering if there are any more reports for these barrels. I am throwing together a gun for long range shooting with my buddies, and I am debating about one of these outlier barrels.

I ordered on on Black Friday. They still can't give me an update on when it will ship.

There Backdraft suppressor/barrel combo offer looks intriguing. Has anyone gotten one of their barrels to try out yet?
My experience with Arken has been nothing but positive but I haven't needed customer support yet.

My 6cm 16” shot great the few shots I put through it.

It’s for sale in classifieds if anyone’s interested. I built a dasher and sold off all the 6cm stuff.

Still haven't shot the one I ordered on bf. But paying attention to other forums, fb groups, and YouTube videos, the barrels seem to be shooting pretty well for most folks.

The backdraft stuff seems intriguing but what is it like $500 right now for a backdraft barrel + suppressor? I cant help but think that paying 1/4 of what a reputable mfr would charge for such a thing is likely to result in a cluster fook that will cost more in headaches and poor performance than what I'd be saving?

Ill let ya know soon. A buddy and I both ordered a backdraft 20". Mine in 6cm and his in 7mm08. Still haven't shot my steel outlier barrel. The action i bought it for still has a good barrel on it so it isn't a rush for me. Also going to get it turned down from the 1.2 straight it came as.

The 100.00 barrel I bought shot great. It’s just a boat anchor.

If you’re trying to build a heavy rifle, it doesn’t seem like the worst deal.

6cm

I needed another Tikka chassis part and if you bought a barrel with 20% off you got a free chassis part so now I got a 16 in ss mtu fluted for my savage beater on the way hah. Here's the weights per outlier
