Brownells USA Accurate Lightweight 21/03/2018

Caught this on sale a while back and it is an excellent base for a lightweight build, would be a great quality up-grade for an existing gun also. Fit and finish was perfect of course it,s a Faxon.

Was kind of leery as it,s my first pencil profile but no worries with this barrel, It maintains excellent accuracy even when smokin hot. I have not run it past 50 yards yet but it will stay in the X ring all day.
