I’ve used Mark at SAC for my two barrels. Great people at SAC.
As others have stated, Mark at SAC makes a great barrel. I have a Bartlein from him in 6.5 creedmoor for my DT that is just a fantastic barrel. I've also had barrels from DMR-LLC, which used to be sold by Ty here on the hide. They were Hawk Hill blanks and really shot well. DMR's price is really good too. I've heard good things about ES, but never had one. I've also had a barrel from TS Customs (Primal Rights). It was on a Benchmark blank and shot very well, but it's one of (maybe the) most expensive. Based on my experience with DMR and SAC, I wouldn't look any farther than those two for Desert Tech barrels. Turnaround from SAC was about 4 weeks on my Bartlein earlier this year. Turnaround from DMR has been quicker in the past (sometimes as fast as a week), but I don't know how quickly they are getting them out currently.
Yes , barrels are a bit pricey for these platforms, but they use a barrel extension. So when you burn out a barrel , I think you can reuse your old barrel extension on your new barrel . Forget how much the barrel extensions coast , maybe around $300 or so . That helps in the long run . Dt srs are fun .
Travis at TS Customs builds an extremely easy to load very accurate DT barrels.
I highly recommend ES Tactical https://www.es-tactical.com/shop/Desert-Tech/ES-Tactical-SRS-Barrels--Conversion-Kits.htm
I have gotten all my barrels from them and they are nothing sort of magical. Below is just one of many targets that produce the same results.
