The Bernard barrels used on Parker Bros grade-4 is the 'Bernard I' by far the most striking of the Bernard tubes.
I think that using these barrels on the Grade 4 simply helps to set off and legitimize the extra expense for the Grade 4 as well as create some, as we say these days, "sizzle" which is a good marketing ploy.
