The 6UM

It's so barrel-dependent

I have an 18" 6UM30 doing 3125 with 115s

Does barrel brand matter for speed? Or is it just individual barrels? Wanting a 16” barrel that’ll do 3k with 108s or 115s. Open to recommendations

If I had to bet on a fast barrel it would be a steel benchmark.
 
FWIW The most consistent barrels I’ve seen have been Bartlein and Krieger cut rifled barrels
Only had a few Brux cut rifled and they all hammered

To add to that, what is the most consistently tight-grouping steel barrel you’ve shot?

I know the Benchmark that you sold to @TradLife406 is an absolute hammer!

If I sell a rifle, I can promise it hammers.:) If a rifle sucks, I will rebarrel it—no need for more inaccurate rifles in the world.

I don't think you can go wrong with any known barrel company. I really like Benchmark, but damn, that wait time is rough. One very underrated barrel company is Pacnor. I have two right now that really stack them.

It’s kinda funny, because Pac-Nor doesn’t get mentioned much at all.
