I have done LRI barrels in the past, and they have ran well on the RPR 6.5 Creedmoor. Now I am looking at replacing my current barrel cause it is shot out. I have put about 5K rounds thru it, with it actually being affected as far as grpouping at 3-3500 rounds.
So I am seeing that White Oak Armament is in the game with a 1:8 twist, 26" drop in for the RPR for under $400.00.
Anyone had any luck with these? If you have installed one, what kind of groups are you getting from it.

They seem to be a quality shop for AR stuff, but how are the barrels?
Kind of on a budget, but don't want to waste the cash if quality is in question. LRI has been great in the past.

I dropped one of the White Oaks 6.5 barrels in my RPR. I am averaging .5 " groups with 147 ELDs. I only have 600 rounds down the tube, but looks good so far.  8)

WOA has done really good work on AR's
If you've had good luck with LRI, then I would tend to
stay with them.
Here's another option for $499.  PVA does really good work.

I have run X-Caliber barrels in a couple of my AR's and Savage 6mm Grendel Bolt Action and have been very pleased with their performance.  The Grendel was shooting under 2" groups at 600 yards...which I won't complain about.  They also provide RPR barrels.

If everything seems under control......you're just not going fast enough

I can highly recommend Josh's work. I have a few barrels from him now and will be sending him two more in a week to pre fit for a TL3 action I have coming in.
