[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Criterion Barrels

I was originally looking at Ranier and WOA barrels for my first build, but found 18" melonited chrome lined hybrid contour Centurions in stock, and for a slightly more attractive price.

I'm looking to build an accurate rifle, how does Criterion stack up against Ranier and WOA's offerings?

Maybe my google fu is a little weak, but I've been unable to find any reviews other than "They're good/great".

I'm sure someone has done some actual accuracy testing. Any help would be appreciated.

If you are looking for extreme accuracy then chrome lined is NOT the way to go.

Criterion is Krieger's button rifle division, they're tack drivers from what I've seen.

Benny Hill @ Triangle Shooting Sports uses a lot of Criterion barrels. He has nothing but praise for them and he builds a lot of 3 gun ARs.
