There likely the issue ... as Choked and Unchoked LW's in the states are the same price.
To say CHEAP we're likely to think a secondhand barrel someone else found to be inaccurate as well ... thus selling "Cheap"
Is this incorrect ?

Not at all! I just happen to know someone who had a batch made quite a few years ago and hadn't used them so he sold me one cheap for me to try on the off chance that it might be OK, but unfortunately it wasn't particularly accurate enough for me just like the STD barrels I tried IE not what I would call an accurate barrel, however I had a choked LW barrel arrive this morning and I have machined it to fit and have just got back after a testing session and the results are encouraging despite the 20mph + wind so having bought a LW barrel at full price it looks like I have finally got a barrel the Epoch likes, still got to be THE most picky gun I have owned though,
And had I prior knowledge of it that I now have I would never have bought it!

I just joined the Epoch club today, a Saturday delivery. Mine's a .22.
Figuring out which sight to put on it. So far I like the EOTech, EXPS3. It sits at a good height. Fits the look too. With a mostly square body of the gun, the square EOTech fits. Gotta get a magnifier for distance shooting though.

Not trying to push an item by any means but depends what you want to do. Day Hunting, night hunting. Bench rest. Field target.?
I have a SFP Delta scope 2-50x56 for bench rest on my Skout. On another gun i have a Oneleaf Commander NV400 Day/Night Scope.
It’s a digital day or night scope with a built-in rangefinder it can record and you can make it a first focal plane or second or more. You should give that a look.
I have a discount code to if you do and up getting one. MSRWorkshopNV400
another great option is the Vector Optics Sentinel-X Pro 10-40x50 SFP Scope. won’t brake the bank and has lots of range. Code for discount on this one is, MSRWORKSHOP

Thanks for the offer. I have a few scopes on hand, that I can try.
With the setup that I've decided to go with, is both good for "up close and personal", and for 100+ yards with the 3x magnifier. That's all I need.
I do have a habit of swapping sights and scopes around, any given gun, so it could end up with a scope on it at some time in the future.
I actually kinda like the new, EOTech, Vudo, 3-9 x 32, "Ultra Short" scope. Could end up with one of those too.
Thanks again for the offer.
