Decent Barrel without months to wait?

[B3dlam]

I am looking at building up a new bolt gun in 6.5 creedmoor I will likely be using a Badger action or something similar in quality I am looking for a barrel but I am noticing most of the quality manufacturers seems to have 6-8 month lead times I was curious if anyone know a reputable quality barrel maker that had shorter leads?

the longer the leade the better the quality is, great barrels aren't made fast.
Place your order now and wait a bit. N shortcut really.
cheers.

Grizzly keeps Bartlein around, might be worth a shot.

Bugholes Midway Thirdgeneration and many other websites have top barrels on hand.

There are also places that have the top tier barrels in stock. You just have to search around to find the exact one you want.

I have used Bruno Shooters Supply myself to get barrels.

There is also

Grizzly Industrial

Third Generation Shooting Supply

Bugholes A.K.A. Southern Precision Rifles

Contact Bugholes on here or go to his web site Bugholes.com. He has a good selection of 6.5's in Brux right now. Brux are as good as any IMHO. Also Greg is great to deal with, smooth and fast transactions.

Re: Decent Barrel without months to wait?

I order almost all my barrels from bugholes if I need it quick and I don't need a weird contour. If I want something in a special contour or twist I go Brux or Schneider. Both of them usually take 8 weeks.

I've got a pair of Obermeyer M40 contour 5R 6.5mm barrels that can finish up to 29" if you're interested.

Lilja 3 groove for a 6.5, they keep 2 contours in stock on the lilja website, #4 and sendero

I have them on a .260 and a 6.5wsm. they both shoot amazingly and are the easiest to clean I have ever seen

Re: Decent Barrel without months to wait?

I have shot quite a few 6.5 mm's from Brux and have been very happy with them and Bugholes is a great stocking dealer. I even order the contours he does not stock from him as he seems to get them to me faster than going directly to Brux.
