I would go with the wilson and stay away from the stoner barrel personally.

I run a Wilson match on my 300 BO and it is a tack driver. So far I have worked 5 hunting loads (5 different bullets) mostly in 125g. All shoot sub moa if I do my part.

Stoner is an in-house brand for Midway. They may source their barrels from more than one vendor. Not sure if Wilson Combat makes their own barrels, but I imagine their quality control is fairly strict since it has their name on it. |

Thanks for your input Moondog, I didn't know it was an in-house brand. I like the Wilson because I've read the chamber and bore is polished after being cut and the attention to QC is very good. |

I had a wilson combat barrel, specifically the 16 inch fluted barrel in 300 blackout and I put 3 bullets through the same hole at 100 yards (not an exaggeration btw). These were my own loads however they were soft points and I was shooting bench rest. The quality of wilson is outstanding. Only reason I got rid of it was because I built an SBR.

Their barrels are manufactured by Faxon and their quality is top notch! |
