Bartlein Barrels - Precision Engineering for Elite Shooters

Discover the unmatched precision of Bartlein Barrels, specifically our Stainless Steel, 6mm, B#8 Light Varmint model. This barrel features a unique 15-14.25 twist and a 24'' blank, equipped with 5 Groove rifling, ensuring superior accuracy for the discerning shooter.

Impact of Contours on Barrel Weight

Yes, the contour of a barrel significantly affects its weight. Heavier contours, while adding mass and stability, may not always guarantee improved shooting performance. At Bartlein Barrels, we leverage single point cut rifling to minimize the traditional concerns associated with barrel contour, ensuring every shooter can find the perfect balance between weight and performance.

Heavier vs. Lighter Contours

While heavier barrels may improve stability, our innovative rifling process ensures that even lighter contours can provide exceptional accuracy. This method allows us to reduce residual stress common in button-made barrels, offering an enhanced shooting experience regardless of the barrel's weight.

Suppressors and Barrel Contours

Using a suppressor? We recommend pairing it with no less than a medium palma contour to optimize performance. The suppressor's weight can influence the barrel's harmonic vibrations, and a suitable contour can mitigate these effects, ensuring consistent accuracy.

The Superiority of Single Point Cut Rifling

Our single point cut rifling stands apart by not introducing stress into the barrel blank, a common issue with button rifling. This precision ensures a consistent bore and groove diameter throughout the barrel, enhancing long-term performance and accuracy.

Why Fluting Matters

Fluting is more than just an aesthetic choice; it plays a crucial role in weight reduction and heat dissipation. Our carefully designed fluting patterns enhance the barrel's surface area, allowing for quicker cooling without compromising stiffness or performance.

Choosing the Right Rifling

Our range includes 4-groove, 5R, and Conventional-5 rifling styles, each with its unique advantages. Notably, 5R rifling minimizes bullet deformation, improving flight stability and accuracy. This rifling style has been shown to particularly benefit bullet performance, as confirmed by extensive feedback from the ammunition and bullet manufacturing industry.

Conclusion

Our Stainless Steel, 6mm, B#8 Light Varmint barrel is a testament to our commitment to quality, offering unparalleled accuracy, longevity, and performance.
