    I am considering an outlier barrel with the backdraft suppressor. I am guessing no one has tried one, given I only see them on YouTube (and they are nearly all shills). The barrel is roughly $500 and comes with $400 credit for their base model suppressor, which you can upgrade, which is a crazy good deal considering most of my suppressors alone are $1200+ . Does anyone have any experience?

    I am undecided on having them prefit it, but I have a deep hate for barrel nuts. I am hesitant, though, to spend more money on a system with lower expectations for a shoulder chamber job on their blank that may almost double the cost. My chamber job on the carbon from Alex Wheeler was more expensive than the entire barrel and suppressor from outlier.

    This is going on a 700 action I am doing nothing with currently, and only want it for a cheap alternative for a true hunting rifle, sub 200 yards in 300 Win Mag, and I will upgrade suppressor to the longest model. I may shoot it farther, but I will not pick this up over the other custom guns I have for my 3-4x per month long range shooting (attached so you don't have to call me cheap, or think this will be my 1k yard gun)

    Does anyone else have thoughts on this and/ or considering it? I normally am extremely suspicious of cheap gun parts (again, see picture), but for some reason, this one has me intrigued. https://getoutlier.com/products/308-7-62mm-backdraft-cf-barrel
