[QUOTE="Rok1167, post: 1724079, member: 111476"] I have a personal predicament selecting the contour for a 280 AI. Pretty much set on it being a Criterion for prefit application. This is intended to be a hunting rifle where weight is a strong consideration. The Criterion sporter contour options are limited: -Sporter @ 24", 2.95 lb, muzzle dia 0.593 -Heavy Sporter @ 24", 3.38 lb, muzzle dia 0.705 The internal struggles are: 1. is there an accuracy difference between those two options, generally? 2. a 9/16 thread on the Sporter contour does not leave enough shoulder for a break. A 1/2 thread leave less than recommended barrel thickness. Any input on those items would be greatly appreciated. This is the first time diving into something like this. [/QUOTE]
