I am getting the required components together for a 338 Norma Magnum build. Have a Surgeon receiver on the way, a McMillan A5 stock here, Surgeon Floor Metal on the way, and YHM Muzzle break & silencer on the way. The barrel is what is giving me problems. I wanted a Krieger 32" (full velocity and quieter w/ silencer) fluted MTU barrel. But they are many months out, and I do not want to wait. So what should I go with? Brunx, PacNor, Rock Creek, or Shilen (which I would have to send elsewhere for fluting)? I really want a 1 in 9.3-9.5, but would settle for a 1 in 9. Going to be shooting 300gr bullets.
Thanks!
Thanks!
