I am sure Hart is NOT involved in this -not quite their market.
Years ago the best deal was Douglas pre chambered barrels-they were easy to thread and headspace and shot etremely well.
A fact not many know is that they have produced Bench Rest quality barrels for some very good shooters. I also shot some early Ruger #1 and varmint 77's with Douglas barrels that impressed me especially in .220 Swift.
I remember one barrel that was a button rifled house brand reject bought for $14 I think. It was a 22/250 and when my friend was installing this he called me over.When you ran a brush or tight patch through you could feel all the tight and loose spots and see why it was a reject. On a good M98 action with a Weaver K10 this rifle using the first load of 4064 and Speer 52 HP put 10 rds in under 3/4 " at 100 yds all day long. After seeing the targets a friend offered him twice the money that the rifle cost in parts with out bargining which BoB rather enjoyed a lot so he sold it but would have rather taken less money after some dealing.
The best way to see what any barrel will do is shoot it- you never know until then.
