Hi Folks,
I have decided to go ahead and buy a New Target Barrel rather spend my time fitting my
new 260 AI Remington build with my Lijila Hunting Profile barrel that has less than 50 rounds on it
as I was told when I bought it, I ask the guy why he was selling it, and he told me that he was
going to go with a 338 Lupa. The barrel looks awesome inside and out, and he sold me all his
260 AI dies, brass, brand new Redding seater die ect.
So is there a place that you guys on here used to buy accurate barrel's at a fair price?
Thanks
Greg
 
Nobody is going to tell you where they can get good barrels quickly. If they did (especially on this site) they would no longer be able to get new barrels quickly.
 
Target Barrel

First Off,
I want to thank each and everyone for the help. I don't know Bughole, but I am sure I can run him down. I will go to
newtargetbarrels.com and see what they have, I am not in a big hurry, I am going to face the facts that I will never get
all my builds done that I have. I don't think i will have any actions for sale, might have a couple barrels.

I see guys stating 5R xxxxx barrels, I assume that means 5 rifling's . I know of 3 rifling's barrel's but they are not listed as 3R.
I have heard one guy say button rifled barrels are the best, then I have heard that cut rifling's are the best? I am not for sure that these people are comparing apples to apples. You would have to take 2 rifle blanks one cut right after the other, use the same camber reamer ect. then you would have to use the same stock, scope rings and scope all torqed the same.
But I ask you this, what does the magor amount of bench rest shooters use? Don't say Pope or Ballard ect.
My father did teach me one good thing, price isn't everything!!

I would be very great full for any and all help!
