Took the plunge and ordered one of PVAs new osprey carbon barrels in 6.5mm for a lightweight 6.5 PRC. Josh was very helpful and I wound up ordering a 23 inch barrel in the competition contour as that's the only one they are currently doing...it tapers to .99 at 26 inches and should be right at 3lbs or a little under at 23 inches finished. Want the option of running a suppressor and my 300 Omega only adds 5.5 inches to the length. Good thing is the barrel can be cut down farther which was a main selling point for me and my gunsmith...the blanks come in 26 but can be cut down to 18 inches. The action is a Kelbly Nanook and the stock a McMillan carbon. BDL floorplate and Trigger Tech Diamond trigger...more to come...hopefully the barrel comes next week as they have them in stock and say a 4 day turnaround on blanks.
