You looking for something uncommon? Lots of blanks on the shelves
No just ordered a blank today, just wondering how long wait time is, since carbon 6 says 6-8 months on their website.
It is best to contact Proof Research directly and ask them about their current/actual wait time. Wait time depends on their workload and the time of year (peak season). I waited four months when I ordered my barrel from C6 last year.

C6 Told me 4months last October, Received it in August. Wouldn't have cared so much if they'd have simply been up front with me when I contacted them when it was late.
Here's a link to a thread about this. Agree with Feenix, its best to contact Proof or wherever your looking to purchase it from directly.

did you save money ordering one vs finding one on the shelves?
I was able to get a proof blank 20in sendero 1:8 twist in 7mm off expertvoice(military discount site) for 650.00. So good deal
Stockys has Proof CF blanks on sale for $599 right now. Not sure they've got your combo though. If you subscribe to their email list you get and additional 10% off. Heck of a deal if they've got what you need.
