Just got my 24" SS 1:11 .308 Black hole barrel in. Put it on a SI Defense upper and a Tactical Machine lower. First 20 rounds under an inch even though it was 25 degrees and I was not as focused as I should be.

Claude and Gale from Black Hole are #1 initially I had received a barrel with 7.62mm chamber and it was not performing up to what I expected. I returned the barrel they diagnosed the issue returned a new barrel no issues.

If anyone is looking for a build try these barrels.

I know I'll post a picture.

I've heard good reports on BHW barrels. I have one on an AR build, but haven't shot it yet. Post some target pics when you get a chance!
 
Re: Black Hole Barrels .308

Black Hole barrels are GTG aslong as they send the right one. Their customer service and quality control in my experience has been hit and miss. I ordered a 260 rem. 1-8 twist from them in sept. the first barrel I received had an ar15 barrel extension on it. Sent it back got a replacement barrel about 1 month later but the new barrel has a 1-9 twist in it. I called them up they said to keep it and they will replace it with a 1-8 twist barrel. Which was really cool of them. Except every time I call to ask about the barrel, they have no idea what I'm talking about and I have to remind them every time I call. I still haven't received the actual barrel I ordered.
 
Re: Black Hole Barrels .308

similar issues. search, im not gonna rehash it all. i asked if they wanted the bolt. nope. got the barrel, bolt wouldnt rotate in extension, could not close the upper as the BCG would not go all the way into battery. had to pay postage to fix their mistakes and kinda went south from there. hope it shoots is all i can say. it got done eventually. id order again, but id just send my bolt like i wanted to. gayle is super.
