Can someone suggest some good quality leather barrel reins for me? Ive been using roping reins but I need to buy some more reins and want some that will last me and feel good not too stiff and I like a bit of a heavier rein.

NRS or Smithbrothers, 5/8 latago leather roping reins. If you have a local saddle or leather maker I've had special reins made, for my young horses I like a wide heavy rein, hope that helps.

I've got some braided leather reins from Curt Leonard/Carolina Bit. They are $50 but I've used them for quite a while.

 I'm super picky about my reins.  Ordered some Martin braided reins last summer and sent them back because they were too light and flimsy for me.  My faves are the 5 plait latigo ones Marlene McRae sells.

Single round rein....nice and heavy.  T4L, I bet you would like these.  I don't like those Martin reins either because I feel they are too light.  The Wright reins have some weight in your hand.

www.shallowcreekbit.com has the most supple leather laced reins. They are available in 3 lengths with solid brass hardware. Also a great variety of D ring reins and split reins!
