Yes, sure .. its .338 LM

I Have bought my MRAD May 2017. My breech size is 0,95"

does anybody know the manufacturer of the mrad barrels? Are they cold forged? or lapped? How is the quality compared to other precision rifles? Is it possible to let manufacture a custom barrel, with a caliber what is not offered by barrett?

I use the bore guide from dewey ... especially created for the mrad. Its perfect. But its only available in .338

I also do not know.. but maybe somebody here knows

same as mine ... i love this rifle

yes only 338

yes that looks like nickle on copper. Nickle can only be removed machanically, right?

By the way, to the topic of the point of impact shift in case of barrel change... here the todays answer from Barrett: If you are installing the exact same barrel within just a few minutes, and all conditions have remained the same, then the impact shift usually is less than 1/2 MOA. If...
