Can you buy turn key Rifle Barrels

[Don-n-Texas]

Can you buy turn key rifle barrels. Threaded for muzzle break chambered in 300 win mag.

 

[Jointshooters]

Yes, depending on action...just torque the barrel and go.

Thank you

For what action? And do you mean possible with a barrel nut or shouldered? Both are needed to know if it’s ‘possible’.

Remington 700 300 win mag. It has less than 100 rds. The throat is very deep. I got it shooting 1/2 “ groups but rounds won’t fit the magazine.
Does anyone know a gunsmith in DFW area with reamer to recut a 300 win mag chamber.

700s are going to need to go to a gunsmith for a shouldered prefit.

You could run a Remage barrel nut prefit, though

Best bet is to buy a criterion barrel with remage nut, barrel vise and headspace gauge. Works and typically shoot very well.

Contact these guys if you want to replace the barrel and they can get you what you need. If you just want to rechamber your current barrel you will need a gunsmith in your area to assist. There are several gunsmiths in the Denton area but I have no experience with any of them.

Best bet is to try a longer jump that fits in the mag, if you have a factory tube that shoots 1/2 MOA. My factory 300wm could not reach the lands and keeps 208 amax in the case. It shot great for almost 2k rounds with bullets seated so they could be mag fed. Jump was in the .2 range.

Touching lands ? Why ? Jump it 60 thou as a start and go from there.

Yes you have a half moa load which is long, I expect you can find a load which is shorter and fit mags.

I’d try some jump.
You can usually easily find accuracy with a lot f jump.

 

[powdahound76]

Just hand feed?

I mean, do you really need a mag fed 300?
Or just find where it likes the jump as suggested if you do.
worth looking for vs the cost of barrel/chamber work.

Thank you to everyone. Great input. I will use this advice.
