I´m interested in Adams & Bennett pipes. What`s your opinion of them? Are they worth of money ?

I bought 2 of them, they are reasonably priced (check out the sales), they are short-chambered, they are heavy contour (mine are F34's) and I was lucky, mine shoot sub MOA.  They come in the white and stainless (mine were in the white) and do not come highly polished, so you will have to determine what level of shine you want and what finish.

I got one in 6.5x55
But have not installed it, after I got it I desided I wanted
a .243 or 308 :?
But I will be ordering another one.
I have heard good reports on them, Shaw is also a good barrel from

The price is so low, I figured they had to be crap, but after trying a couple, I'm getting sub MOA groups. Most recent was a 25-06, the barrels were on sale for $79, my finish reamer cost me more than that!

A buddy and I have several of them.  His 280 will shoot half inch groups at 200.  All of our guns shoot less than moa.    $50 Big 5 Mauser and $80 Midway barrels makes for a mighty fine gun.  Add a synthetic or partially inlet wood stock and a nice trigger for another $100-150 and you will have a mighty fine gun.  Then go out a shoot a deer with it and it seems even better.
