Zeke (store manager) –
As usual criterion delivers. Sub MOA guaranteed from the factory and eats up the 75TMG Federal ammo I’ve been feeding it. Will be buying a second
Eldon N. (verified owner) –
Very pleased! During break in, the pic is the first 5 shot group. Looks like a shooter!
Chase Christiansen –
This barrel shoots awesome. Shooting five shot groups produced the following results: Hornady Match 88 ELDs shot at 1/2″ or less. Federal 90 GMM shot 3/4″-1″. Federal 60 NBT shot right under 1″.
