Never had one, but every club member who has one in 6mm or 7mm hammers the x’s

Lilja barrels have a long history of being top notch. Presumably they still are. I had one in 9 twist 30 cal about 8 years ago and it was farking awesome.

Got one on a 22lr and when the rifle was clamped up in the ammo
Test range and different batches of eley tenex were run through it
I get .240 at 50m for 10 shot group's and most other ammo shoots
Great as well

Got two in .308, both are very good barrels. My oldest one, won a Queens in F Standard with about 4500 rounds through it.
You might as well be yourself, everyone else is already taken.

I use them exclusively but then i have to as i import them.

I've had 3 complaints in the last 6 years. The first was the bore was out of centre by 0.013" at the muzzle but after fitting they said it shot like a laser. The second was a 22lr barrel that the gunsmith cut the choke off and it had nothing to do with the barrel. The 3rd was a drop in sako barrel and Lilja agreed accuracy wasn't good enough and sent a replacement barrel for the customer.

Thanks everyone, sounds like they shoot better than I do, but that’s not hard !

I'm a bit late. Shot 60.6 at 500m last Sunday. They hold up.

I got a CZ 455 drop in 22LR one from Seddo.

It’s in an MDT alloy stock and will put 10 rounds of CCI standard into groups like this at 50m
