A slow powder and a modest speed for a 6x47, but a good result, and one that shouldn't toast the barrel...........

The Bergara barrel was a pleasant surprise, a beautifully finished bore, and the blank cost me just £219, posted.

Don't depend on the price, though.......it was a year ago. However, I'd say that the quality is very good. I seem to remember reading somewhere that Krieger set up the Spanish plant.
