Best .177 slug barrel?

My friend Soren Drost shoots the RTI Prophet Performance .177.
He expanded the transfer port and polished the barrel with Autosol.
It is a laser with the 13.43 Knockout. Very impressive for a simple design like the Prophet.

But when he got it it was not good. First it had the limitation of the Transfer port.
Second it was hard and uneven to push a slug through the barrel.
So he polished the barrel except the choke.
Now it is impressive - very consistent, Very accurate and very quiet and most interesting - first shot always also bang center crosshair.

The barrel on the Prophet is already a super barrel for slugs - it just need a little polish work.
For sure easier to polish the barrel, than to adapt another barrel.

Ask Soren for guidance.

Best regards from Denmark
