How has that barrel bolt combo performed accuracy-wise?

Too soon to say as I haven't shot it past 25 yards. But at 15 yards it puts three round in one jagged hole. More concerned with the reliability of extracting rounds manually. The Bentz chambers have a bit of a reputation for not wanting to extract unless you're actually firing the gun. Have not shot that barrel at a match yet which is about the only time manually ejecting a round matters for me.
I can sing the praises of the Kidd bolt though. With a factory barrel in a Tuf receiver it runs flawlessly. Have fired hundred (maybe a thousand) rounds through that setup. Had two failures, one was ammo for sure, the other I suspect was too.

If you get a chance, it'd be nice to see some groups at 50 with ammo it likes. I'm considering one of those barrels myself.
here is my contribution, had a little competition with buddy from work, i lost a shootout, this gun wasn’t a part of the competition, my ole’ lakefield with a vintage scope, and a mix bag of different ammo, couldn’t keep up with the brand new savage, so now Rug will have to represent next match, i need to make it more accurate, any sugestions? beside the Dlask barrel and archangel stock it’s all stock
oh u betch u donkey i’m bringing my best ammo, no more mixing different makes in a soft bag

My EE special next to my grandfathers original, all ruger parts just bought on the EE from various sellers, 3D printed mag adapter and mag light on a super rugged mount lol, it’s ridiculous but that’s the point

little on a heavy side, would like it lighter, im going to try it without the v shim next time, I dont feel any difference between it and MDT but Ive never really paid attention to it that much in that context

Thank you for the reply.
Spent all kinds of time designing my 3D printed chassis so I figured I should put together a cool little shorty build. Had to print a slightly longer buffer tube to keep it over 26" collapsed without the flash hider on. 3lb 13oz with the red dot. 
lol, no way, the rod and the ball pin hammer are for the muzzy and iron sight guns that make a trip with me
