im building a 6.5x47 lapua, on a surgeon action, either 26 or 28" barrel length, most likely gonna go krieger......
which barrel contour would be reccomended
 
Re: which barrel contour?

Standard Palma or Senduro.

I've got a 26" Brux in a heavy varmint(#17) contour for my .260 and it's a beast. (8lbs) My 22" Senduro is nothing compared to it.
 
Re: which barrel contour?

The one I have on order is a Medium Palma fluted. I have a heavy variment for my 260 to. That gun is very heavy. The medium Palma with be stronger and the fluted barrel will take some of the weight off (about a pound).
