I just picked up a MATEN receiver set and I'm in need of a 6.5 barrel. There is a shop not far from me Precision Firearms in WV. Anyone have any experience with their barrels? They are using bartlein blanks but I just haven't heard from anyone using them. Are they good to go? Will they preform up there with a barrel from GAP?

Their quality is surpassed by none. I've got 2 of their Grendel barrels and they out shoot me all day.
PF are actually Precision-made, not what we typically see when the laundry list of companies slap "precision" on their name and crank out mediocre products.
Mark's receivers don't have tool marks on them, and that's before he tumbles them. I haven't seen that with many people in any industry.
His uppers typically shoot 1/2 MOA.

I spoke to Mark this week about a semi-custom 6.5G Bartlein pipe i've been dreaming up. Fluted, medium HBAR, intermediate length gas, 16" threaded 5/8-24........ $1,065 with an 8-10 week wait time. I decided to sleep on it. Thats a tough pill to swallow, but i know it'll be as accurate or more so than anything else ive ever owned. Hard to get past it though when i get John to build me an identical spec 223 wylde for $480. I dont know, jury's still out.
To be as fair as possible though, that did include a NiB-X bolt though too. So call it a grand out the door
