Gun and gear reviews Canadian Barrel Manufacturers

Are there any cut rifling barrel manufacturers in Canada? If so, who? Anyone used their products?

IBI, KS Arms and Cadex are all Canadian, and world class manufactures. I have an IBI on my 6.5 Creedmoor PRS rifle, and it’s an absolute hammer.

i thought Cadex sources their barrel from Bartlein?

Bartlein is available, for an upcharge. But they make their own barrels in house that also shoot fantastic.

Seems like Cadex do have their own barrel line, but for their precision rifle, it's all Bartletin.

Cadex doesn't sell their barrel blank to public or chamber their blank for non-Cadex rifle anyway.
