[QUOTE="TobiasPA, post: 2914930, member: 42215"] I'm on the low end of the hobbyist range and have put new barrels on a bunch of Savage actions. It can become an addiction quickly, at least for some of us. :) You can get barrels in a wide range of different calibers, twist rates, and contours. Send in some dummy rounds and have it cut for your specific bullet. Endless possibilities to experiment and learn. For a hunting rifle out to 500 yards, I would say get the barrel and have fun. I have only used prefits from Shilen and Criterion and they work well for me. Just be aware that you will start ordering more barrels and looking for donor actions in all the wrong places shortly after you have completed this build. You didn't buy all these fancy tools to just use them once, did you? :) [/QUOTE]
