dlask vs tacsol barrel?

I would like to know this as well, I've been on the fence between these two barrels for a while. I like Dlask price point but not sure of the weight of the barrell, looks heavy for packing around a field blasting gophers all day. On the other hand was thinking the Tacsol for that reason.....but the price is keeping me second guessing. Anybody have any opinions on both?
 
I have used both Dlask and Tac Sol... also, Kidd, ERS, RT, GM, WP etc... on many, many builds... between Dlask and Tac Sol, the Tac Sol wins on weight by a good margin, but the lask barrel is more accurate... and this has been confirmed by multiple comparisons... if you want a light weight barrel, go with a Dlask sporter or stepped barrel... and obviously the shorter barrels are lighter... The 12.5" Dlask will outshoot a 16.5" Tac Sol... at least in my experience.
 
I haven't received my TacSol barrel yet, but the Dlask has a super tight chamber. I haven't put a lot through it, partly because only high end ammo will extract cleanly. Hopefully it loosens up a tad as it breaks in. It is also very beefy, which is why I had to order a TS for comarison :D
To those in the know- what is the chamber like on the TacSol barrels?
 
Love my TacSol barrel. no FTE like my old dlask.... and has the same accuracy. The best part of the TacSol is the weight. 6.12 pounds

A note on semi-auto chambers; Sporter chambers are the least picky of ammo and generally the least accurate... tight match chambers are generally the most accurate, but they take work to find the right ammo and often require work to get them functioning well... it is a trade off, you have to decide what your priority is... accuracy, perhaps at the cost of perfect function... OR, perfect function regardless of accuracy... if it is a bench gun, the match chamber is probably the way to go... if the gun is a plinker then a sporter chamber (with the right ammo) is probably a better choice.
