Best GLOCK aftermarket barrel for cast?

[GARCIA]

What would be the best GLOCK aftermarket barrel for shooting cast?

Youngest son has a GLOCK 20 and I would like to pick him up an aftermarket barrel as a xmas present.

I have a KKM Precision that I use with cast in my Glock 34. It fits perfectly and is very accurate with both cast and Js. -Ed

The Glock 20 is a 10mm, yes?

Just my experience: I purchased a Lone Wolf barrel for my Glock 22 and found the tolerances to be extremely tight. It was a real pain to get the ammo just right.

I used a Dillon check guage to check the ammo and it all passed. BUT, some of those rounds would not seat in the chamber. -- I could have sent the barrel back to LW to have it opened up a little, but it would have cost me more money.

In fairness, I have a LW barrel on my G-34 that works just fine.

I would recommend Storm Lake without hesitation. Glockworld seems to have the best prices on them. In the past I have experienced a wait time when ordering, but trust me it is well worth your time to wait.

Isn't glockworld no longer in business?

[bobthenailer]

KKM or Stormlake barrels are the best in that order

I have had really good luck with Storm Lake barrels in Glock 19, 17, 34 and 22. I shoot mostly cast in my glocks, which is why I have the Storm Lake barrels. BTW, Storm Lake barrels, in my pistols at least, have been accurate with J-word bullets.

I have good results with storm lake in nine and 40.
My younger brother loves KKM.

I heard that Bar-Sto was one I'd the best so I have one of them on order for my G34. I am seven weeks into my order. I heard it can take three plus months before I get the call to send them my pistol to have it custom fitted.

I have a one week old Glock 22 with a Lone Wolf barrel. I use Lee's 401-175-TC sized to .402 with a COAL of 1.100. I crimp to .422. Perfect function very accurate and no leading.

[L Ross]

I don't know which is best. I bought a KKM for my Model 21 and it feeds 452424's. I was pleasantly surprised, during the process of testing for function I had 10 holes touching at 10 yards. I had loaded that ammo for a conversion revolver cylinder in 45 acp with a hefty charge of Unique and really didn't expect them to function in a Glock.

Bar Sto is king I believe, price reflects that also.

I've got a LW and it's very tight; will be doing some sanding in the chamber to open her up a bit.

heard good things about storm lake barrels also.

I for one prefer the factory Glock barrel in my 36, 30, 22. and 17's.

[Lloyd Smale]

Bought a wolf barrel for my 23 and 20 and found that both actually shoot better with the barrel the factory used.

I have a Bar-Sto (bought from a member here) in my G21 (.45acp) that works great. I shoot cast almost exclusively with a few plated bullets in the mix. It works fantastic and even though it was a semi-drop in barrel it only took a few minutes with file and stone to fit it to the slide.

I'd highly recommend the Bar-Sto.

[EMC45]

I use a factory barrel in my 36. Works great. No leading.

[Hammerhead]

I've had two KKM barrels for Glocks. Never shot lead in them, but the bores were the smoothest I've ever seen for cut rifling. That's where I would start.

I think you got that from me IIRC.

I've owned Lone Wolf, Storm Lake, KKM and the previously mentioned Bar Sto. I have the KKM in my 21 currently and love it. The Bar Sto was a back order item that I forgot that I had ordered and I sold it when it shipped to me. I never shot it but the rifling and machining was absolutely phenomenal on it.

KKM and Bar Sto are the only two I would ever consider purchasing again.

My glock 30 seems to work great with the glock barrel. I have shot thousands of cast boolits thru it, never had a problem.

[deerslayer]

I am a factory barrel guy too. My 21 has had thousands of cast through it and no leading if sized properly!
