Who are the companies out there that stock quality barrels?

Midway
Bruno's
Accuracy One
Grizzly Ind.

Anybody else?

I'm trying to track down a 6.5 1 in 8 twist MTU or similar contour. Nothing less than .900 at the muzzle, preferably a shade larger.

Thanks for the help.
 
Re: Barrel suppliers

Lothar-Walther USA will produce to your specs; including chambering and threading (if it's for a Savage). Unless things have changed, that should run about $300 per barrel in LW-50 Stainless, BR Grade, and time frames ran about a month to two back around 2005 when I bought my pair of .260 1:8 28"-ers. Lengths over 28" cost an additional premium. My contour is Savage Varmint, runs about .875" at the muzzle, and heavier than that should not be a necessity.

Re: Barrel suppliers

You can always call the various makers and see if they happen to have what you want ready to go. I'd also suggest a WTB ad here if you have not done so already.
