Hoss50 Report post Posted January 11, 2020 Has anyone used one? I found them in my search for Howa Barrels. The price seems low which is a little suspect to me. https://omrifles.com/collections/howa-1500-weatherby-vanguard-prefits/products/257-wby-mag-howage-prefit?variant=17434854752302 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
10Turkeys Report post Posted January 11, 2020 Saw a couple of positive reviews after a Google search, but it could have been the owner of the company posting the reviews as far as I know. One of the guys said that he called and talked to the owner and ask him what barrels they were using and the owner wouldn't tell him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoss50 Report post Posted January 11, 2020 I sent them a message asking about what twist rates they offer in the 257 blanks as I want to get a 8 twist. I am really interested in this option to try and save some money on the rebarrel project I have coming up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoss50 Report post Posted February 18, 2020 Since nobody knows anything about this company I decided to bite the bullet and be your test Guinea pig. I ordered a 257 weatherby carbon wrapped barrel from them yesterday. 1:8 twist with 26" length. In 6 to 8 weeks I should have a barrel hopefully... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Huntermanryan Report post Posted November 18, 2020 Any word on how this build turned out? I just ordered a 20" rem-age for my 7mm rem mag. So far Lee has been great to deal with! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoss50 Report post Posted November 18, 2020 I have not finished my load development yet. I didn't draw any tags and I have been more focused on work. I have some rounds loaded though to try and finish my H1000 load development and also try RL26. I has shot some really nice groups and some just ok groups on H1000. I am trying to find the sweet spot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
