One pistol already converted--this is the next project, my 300 BO pistol which is being converted into a 223 Wylde rifle. Picked up the Satern 20" barrel yesterday--my first go with one of their barrels--and must say from examining the bore I'm extremely impressed. For a button rifled bore the inside was finished outstandingly well; comparable to the very best of custom barrels I've ordered, immaculately clean and polished. About the only thing that gives me slight pause for thought is the muzzle crown ends in a sharp 90 degree edge with no radius/bevel, but is also absolutely free of any irregularities as well. I guess I have to decide whether or not to bevel it, or maybe just wait until I finally nick it, which I'm sure I'll do eventually.
