M14 barrel fouling in start of rifling

That is odd. I assume you're talking about a Springfield Armory, Inc rifle. The barrel would have been manufactured in the late 1950's or 1960's. They did use a lot of USGI barrels in earlier years, but I thought most were new old stock barrels. It is possible that it was a used barrel that was refinished on the outside.

I would talk to the manufacturer, explain the problem and see if they will replace it.
Made in 63 by Winchester. That is all I got. All in all it shoots fine (with iron sights). Was brand new out of the box when I got it.

Accessories Ace .264 24in SP4 barrel

On the fence with selling this one so I might keep posted for just a few days.
Just got this in last week ordered directly from Ace. It's an SP4 contour 24in, 1-7.5 twist. Shipping scale shows 4.3lbs.
I'm asking $375 shipped firm to lower 48. Zelle or PayPal F&F preferred
