Strange question, where can I find lower quality barrels? I know about Gm and a couple others that manufacture some VERY nice, accurate, HIGH quality barrels, for a price, lol. I'm working on a project that does not require high end, highly accurate, super nice barrels. I know companies like CVA, FIE, Traditions, etc do not use such high quality barrels as they would approach half the cost of the rifles themselves, I assume most of those companies make their own but is there a place a normal, non-industry person like myself can find them? Plain octagonal barrel blanks, rifled or smooth, no threads, no breach just a length of barrel that can be worked into what I want without destroying a $200 Gm barrel. For what it's worth, for this project I'm specifically looking for 7/8" Octagon barrels, one in .45 cal with 1 in 60 ish rifling and one in smoothbore as large as can be safely done inside the constraints of a 7/8 octagon. Just looking for a way to do this without having to buy up every sub $100 muzzleloader for parts on GunBroker to get it done.
