My 280 AI barrel from criterion continued to show signs of abnormal expansion at the top of the case web on fired brass--even when firing factory ammo, even after pulling the barrel and resetting the headspace several times. That little voice inside told me to pull the barrel and send it to Criterion.
As a reality check, I decided to put a new 6.5 x 284 barrel from EA Brown on for $260--it's 1:8 twist @ 26". Here is the very first group down the tube. Without the flyer I otherwise had a nice 1 holer going.
No unusual signs on the brass.
