saab Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Tried my new KKM barrel in my M&P PRO9 today and holy crap! At 25yds from the Bianchi barricade... 5 shot group of 1 7/8 inch with 3 shots into 1/2 inch! This compared to my group last week of 2.5" at 25. $175 to my door.

The_Vigilante Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Interesting results. It would be very helpful to Ransom Rest both barrels and see if you get the same results. If so, I would be in line to get a KKM barrel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strangedays Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 After I shot my KKM barrel in my .40 I will never shoot anything else again. These barrels rock and they are true drop in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
want2race Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 I wouldn't mind if they were slightly oversized. Good results though. Glad to hear it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chad GUNder Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 Dropped right in, no problems. How long can you load your ammo? C.O.L. With the KKM? If you've done much testing, What lengths with what kind of bullet profile? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpeltier Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Not very much over factory in my kkm m&p bbl. My reloads on hand will function but engage the rifling causing me to really give the slide a gorilla pull to eject a cartridge. These are 124 mg cmj bullets at a length that have no such issues with the factory bbl. I can measure one later as I am posting this from my phone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPR1 Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 (edited) I gave my KKM barrel a whirl today. First, I don't think I have ever seen a better finish in a handgun barrel other than possibly my HK's. The rifling does start close to the shoulder, I had to force a reload out that would not allow the barrel to go into battery. These shot into about 1.75", so I can't wait to try them with a shorter OAL. Now, the good news..... it turned patterns into groups! I am a happy camper. It seems to be a consistent 2.5 to 3" gun now at 25yds. Before I would sometimes see 4" plus. Edited March 27, 2011 by SPR1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GSWEAR Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 I have a KKM barrel in my M&P I use for IDPA, it probably has 8 or 10 thousand rounds thru it and has done great. It does have a tight and short chamber, some rounds that case gauge fine won't go in the chamber very well and with 124 MG's 1.080 is a long as I can go. I thought about reamer the chamber but it's a nice barrel as is and I just gauge all my match (or most anyway) with the barrel. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another KKM barrel and would recommend them to a Friend. Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
