New KKM barrel for G29

[C.Smith]

I just got my new KKM barrel from Lone Wolf for my G29. I can't wait to try it out. Lone Wolf was very quick on getting it to my door, I was inpressed.

How long exactly did it take? I've been very interested in a few KKM barrels but I wasn't sure if anyone stocked them. I'm just too impatient to wait for them to be made. Case in point - I currently live within 5 minutes driving distance of Barsto and still don't own of their barrels, grrr.

I ordered the barrel Monday afternoon and got it yesterday evening. If you are worried about delay you might call them and ask if they still had them in stock and then order it.

Does it drop right in without any adjustments?

[C.Smith]

Yes, it dropped right in with no problems. The finish on it is great. I hope it shoots as well as it looks. I can't shoot today since we are having 40 60 mph winds at the momement.

I have to make some loads today. Hopefully I will go shoot it tommorrow. My fingers are crossed.

Well, I went out and shot some reloads with the barrel this afternoon. Everthing went well. I found out that 11.5 grains of Hodgdon Longshot with a 155 grain Hornady XTP bullet and Federal Mag Match primers is a bit on the hot side.

Left a small smiley on the cases. I will have to back that off a smidge. It shot my practise load just fine though and I was able to run a magazine of 200 grain Beartooth rounds through with only one (second) one not feeding. I put it back in and it fired fine.

All in all, I'm very pleased with my purchase. It worked better than the other barrel I bought.
