Re barrel carbon wrap 6.5-284 (sub 0.4 moa)

MontanaJack · Dec 4, 2024

I've got a Christensen Ridgeline 6.5-284 with a shot out barrel. Contacted Christensen to replace it, but they don't offer that services. Guess your supposed to throw them away and buy a new one!! Lousy customer service!!! Got that out of my system. Any suggestions re/ where I should send this door stop to get a new barrel? It is the Ridgeline, Model 14 with the 26", threaded carbon wrap barrel and I want to replace like with like. This needs to be sub-MOA after the replacement. The old barrel still shoots slightly over 1 MOA, but I'm a one hole kind of shooter. Don't like my rifles shooting like shotguns!! Thanks,

For a relatively simple barrel replacement, you ought to be able to find a "local" smith that can assist you in getting the right barrel and fitting it to your action and stock.

This would be my first choice. I am lucky to have at least ten reputable GS within an hour's drive from me. I have one two miles from my house. My go-to GS since 2003 is half an hour's drive.

If there's enough meat on the shoulder without interfering with wrap, a good GS can rechamber same caliber. Had my GS reset my 6CM and kept on shooting although it wasn't carbon wrapped. Check with a GS first.

Oregon Mountian Rifles in Billing Mt has done a few for a friend that shoot very well. Fast also.

West Elk Precision has built two rifles for me and they're both dang fine shooters. Pretty quick turnaround too. I've got another idea for a rifle and I'll have him do it as well.
