In the 6 years I ran Center Shot Rifles, I used 90% Brux barrels. Out of the 400 or so Brux barrels I used, I only had barrel related accuracy issues with 2 of them. Both of these were sub 3/4 moa and would give the occasional 1/2 moa groups. Not what my customers expected or paid for. Ken replaced them both no questions asked, and the replacements were solid 1/4-1/2 moa performers. One was a 6.5 win mag on a #4 and the other was a 7mm rem mag on a #5. With quality that high it was the obvious choice for me. Thank You Ken and Norm.

All of the above is true! Great service, top quality barrels and competitive pricing make Brux Barrels one of the best values on the market. My smith told me he had never seen a straighter .224 barrel. You should see it shoot! Gonna buy more of them!!!

I think Rodney’s group was finally verified at .336 by the IBS

Well this does it. This article will open Ken and Norm up so everyone knows they have one of the greatest barrels available.

I met them at the 2009 F-Class Nationals and was impressed enough to buy four barrels on the spot. I have used three dozen of them on projects for myself and other shooters. The shoot and clean method of Barrel break in only takes a round or two with a Brux. They are polished like a jewel inside.

What this article doesn’t talk about is the personal service you get when you call Brux Barrels. I have talked to both Norm and Ken on the phone. It is a real surprise when one of them calls you to confirm an order that they are working on.

So with this article, they will be 9 to 12 months out along with Bartlein and Krieger!!!

When you think about all the processes that go into making barrels from precision barrel makers, the $320.00 or so that we pay at retail is a bargain!

I love my Brux barrels, they shoot great and clean easy. Also, i think you meant Rodney shot a .349″ group, not .0349″.

I have shot Brux barrels for years, most of them are finished for my point blank NBRSA/IBS Benchrest rifles. Still to this day, I usually have someone ask what barrel I am shooting, and I tell them its a Brux, they say that they have never heard of it. (Just the opposite for my 600 yard gun.) I know that I have sold a few Brux barrels, to point blank shooters after they see how well mine have been shooting. I am still surprised that Brux has not caught on in point blank shooting. I think Brux needs to do a bit of advertising in this area. With that all said Brux barrels are GREAT!

That is a pretty serious process. It would be cool to see a time lapse video of the production of one of their barrels.
