I have a Frozen Fiber blank that I want set up/chambered in a "Remage" for a BigHorn Arms Origin Action.
Looking for Recommendations.
Thanks for the help.
 
Is the barrel contoured to accept a barrel nut? If it isn't then a CF wrapped blank is not something that can typically be recontoured except by the manufacturer and even then they may decline it.

We can do it for an Origin either way. I cut a bunch of Origin prefits this week and more next week.

The Origin doesn't use Remage barrels.
 
it is more than likely built up for a typical 1.2 to 1.25 should and can't be turned down to the 1 1/16 diameter for a remage setup without destroying it..

a remage barrel can be no thicker than the major of the barrel thread.

if it were me I would sell it and buy a CF barrel that was mfg specifically to be a remage several top tier makers of CF barrels make them I believe.. proof and carbon six come to mind
 
Use a Barloc from American Rifle company for a barrel with a shoulder. PVA works with ARC, so they could chamber and thread it for the shouldered Barloc. Easiest way to make it a switch barrel.
