Haven't un-packaged it yet- but I just got a barrel from JC. Was exactly the timing he advised when I ordered it. Will be a bit before it is built up to know it if is a shooter or not. JC was great to deal with- I hope the barrel is a shooter!
JC Barrels...yay or nay?

Smart...in a tread about JC barrel...very nice behaviour.
When you have nothing to say to answer a tread..just pass by. The OP asked a question about JC barrel and your answer is irrelevant. We have a term for that - TROLL.

I have a JC 6br barrel and it is a hammer. Good to go. I'm actually thinking of ordering another one already just to have on hand to replace this one when needed. Still doing load development and it's shot 3 of the loads 0.3moa in the one node

Spammers? OP said he wanted to stick with a Canadian company, and was aware of JC. Perhaps he didn't know that IBI is Canadian, and makes fantastic barrels as well. A friend has an IBI on his 6BR, took second at the Kenora 500m BR match with factory Lapua 105's. He's done load development and is in high 1's and low 2's. Not bad for some spam eh!

I have an IBI barrel to try out, building a 7 SAUM on it, looking forward to testing it out.

What cleaner were you using? During break in of my JC barrel I couldn't get clean patches using Hoppes or G96...ever. I tried boretech copper eliminator and after less than 10 patches they were coming out as white as they went in and the borescope was showing similar to what was posted in this thread.
I currently have two rifles with Jury Custom stainless steel barrels, 240 Weatherby and 270 Winchester. I give JC great reviews as they are built with excellence, off the lathe with accuracy excellence, very easy to cleaning (Hopps No. 9 only) and of course weather resistance. However, I've also had Gaillard, Douglas and Krieger before with the same performance.
I now switched to Ron Smith barrels, that are now on two newly built rifles, that are not quite complete. Why I switched?.......try something different, one of the barrels is a gain-twist 1:20 to 1:10, 27".

However, JCCustom Barrels is a different outfit than Bob Jury barrels
One is in Alberta and the other down East in new Brunswick ( I think).

Well, unfortunately in todays world we utilize to may acronyms, jargon or abbreviation in communication. Sometimes a person requires super powers to read one's mind to understand what they are stating, in this case, what they are asking. Maybe the OP can shed some clarification.

He does say JC Barrels in the title but also mentions "he would like to stick to a Canadian" company in his first post........ there are many good Canadian barrel makers and JC is just one of them, I have a JC Barrel and its very accurate.

I will go with yay!
I have a JC Custom on my .223. It is a 30" long 1:7" twist to shoot 80-82 gr bullets out to 1000 yards. I shoot iron sights and the very first match that I shot with it produced a 50.6v at 300 yards. I am in the process of building a Barnard in .308 that also has a 30 inch .308 barrel with a 1:12 twist. There is also a another JC Custom barrel 1-11" twist sitting on my work bench to go onto my CG Millennium action once I am convinced the present barrel is shot out.
