If anyone could name it, or even direct me to something very similar that would be awesome.

thanks for takin a look.
Cheers
 
Re: Rem 700 Barrel help

Looks like a barrel with very little taper to it... Email/call a barrel company and tell them you want a straight taper. With whatever crown you want. Hope that helps

I think he found this picture off Google and likes the way it looks and wants a barrel made off of that barrel.
 
Re: Rem 700 Barrel help

That would be one heavy rifle...

The barrel looks to have no taper, meaning that from where the barrel meets the lug/action through to the muzzle, there is no change in diameter, or very little.

Im not an expert on this matter, but i would say there would be a few manufacturers out there that make barrels such as this

I did find this picture on another website, so I am unable to get better pictures.
From the looks of it I would agree, it has almost no taper.

I will be looking into Palma, thanks WD.
Anyone else have any ideas who makes this barrel, possibly fluted?

Weight is not a factor for me, less recoil etc.
I'll be stationary most of the time anyway.

Thanks
