terrebonne, or
I aquired a barrel blank and was told it was a douglas blank in 30 cal. The dia. where it would go into the action is .9325 with no threads yet. I havent been able to find out what this will fit if anything, any ideas? Was under the original assumption it was a #7 contour the ad said, but i do not think this is correct.

So, the tenon area is .9325" od without threads or .9325 major?















 
Re: new rifle barrel question

here is a pic of the back of barrel, i guess the tenon area. Not sure exactly (im a newbie) the overall diameter is only .9325 and this doesnt seem to be as big around as my #7 schneider barrel at my smiths right now though. So i cant compare this one to my schneider
