Is a Wilson 8" barrel worth $230

I've been pondering on a barrel change for my 300blk pistol.
Been using a KAK $100 value line barrel for a few years and the accuracy isn't bad, but can't say it's exceptionally good at 50yds either.
About 2" @ 50yds with 110 Tac-X handloads using W296. I was using a 3x scope and would have most likely tightened them up with a 10x with my ole eyes. I also had to rush them because of Covid time limitations on the range. They limit to a 2 hr window which gives you around 50 minutes when the line is hot and I was using a chrono. This was my last string and couldn't finish before the whistle blew.
Also wasn't able to zero the scope first and these were actually shot at the 18, 18.5 and 19 targets. Maybe the 19.5 and 20.0 would have tightened the group up as well.
Any input on this Wilson barrel or another that one would anticipate better accuracy that's in that price range?

I have enough money and time devoted to this hobby that I don't want to waste either on a cheap barrel anymore.
