The biggest problem is no quality control. If they inspected all products as a good quality control inspection dept. would they would not get sued so often.
I have a Bergara barrel for one of my Encores I had it magnafluxed and I measure myself and checked hardness I did this type of inspection for 30 years. The steel used is not up to the strength of my TC barrels but is sufficient for 120 grains of BH if you go higher than that you better get a TC or a Knight or you do not have any safety factor and that's is with their premium barrel.
