I was just looking at the 14.7" 6.8 barrel. Is there any difference between these and the barrels you have been selling for awhile? Also, you claim the barrels have "hand polished" bores. Does this mean they are lapped free of cutter marks or just that you've made the bore "shiny"? Lastly, the 6.8 is listed as a 1:11 twist SIX groove rifling. Is this correct? With the big discussion of more grooves creating more pressure its got me curious.

My WC Recon 6.8 SPC has the barrel as described on the website page showing the 6.8 Recon (below). Are the newly announced barrels different?

• Stainless medium weight (.740” at the muzzle) match grade barrel with 4 groove / 1-11 twist, SPC II chamber, M4 feedramps, 16” or 18”

Guys,
Thanks for catching the error. The 6.8 barrels ARE 4 groove, not 6. Someone picked that spec up from our other chambered barrels when entering copy. The correction will be made ASAP.

Edit-Corrections made....barrels are 4 groove.

Are they the same barrels? Or are the newly announced barrels at all different from the ones made early last year? Thanks

Camillo,This is the same line of barrels, with added chamberings, configurations, and features.
