    Vulcan barrels

    Hey guys,

    Anybody have any experience with NZ made Vulcan barrels? Wondering how you found them for accuracy and any good / negative comments.

    In case anybody wants to know, Vulcan barrels are still operating. Sent an email enquiring about calibre/twist last week and got a detailed reply within a few hours.

    I have ordered a few barrel blanks from them when they were making and selling them and they were fine

    My last order for several barrels was being discussed with them and then midway nothing was heard from them again, no e-mails returned so figured they went tits up or the guy got out of it due to ill health

    At the time I spoke to a few people that were wanting orders filled so it was abit of a shame they stopped making them

    I have used Vulcan barrels for several years with excellent results, both in my personal and customers rifles. John did stop production for a while but is now back in operation.
