Alright, i'm due for a new barrel, i guess my gun got the bad one out of the pile at ruger, or the previous owner wrecked it with a brush. But that's beside the point.

I posted a want ad on another forum, and have received several offers. I was looking for a gm or er shaw .920 barrel 18-20", but one person offered a Shooters Ridge bull barrel. I have read good reviews about the fit and finish, but not much about the accuracy. Does anyone have any experience with these barrels? I understand they are discontinued. What would be a fair price for one today, unfired? Also offered was a gm 18" stainless, smooth barrel for $85 unfired, shipped to my door. Should i be jumping on this immediately?

One more thing, does anyone have any experience with the GM subsonic barrels with 1:9 twist? I was thinking about picking one up for a later build, but not sure about not being able to shoot HV ammo.
