On the subject of 1911 barrels no 2 people ever seem to think alike on what's good, bad, or best.
What I think of as my most questionable build for a "Pin Gun" I used a very cheap compensated Roto barrel from Sarco. Wasn't great but would hit the pins. A friend that's big into 1911s loaded me 5 shots to fire lap / hone it with after that it would shoot fairly respectable groups for a $50/60 barrel.
Sadly even in my good days I don't think I ever owned or built a gun that wouldn't out shoot me so from my stand point there's a cut off on what's useful accuracy. I'm sure there are a lot of shooters whose cut off is higher than mine so let them spend more time and money on the barrel.
