[QUOTE="Jud96, post: 1723049, member: 69478"] First off, let me say you have picked an excellent cartridge and you have a good mindset and plan of action. To answer some of your questions, Criterion would be a great choice for your barrel. I would order it through Northland Shooter Supply. They’re a great company to deal with. I would also call them and ask about your question regarding the .280 Ackley Match chamber. For twist rate, I would do 1-8 or 1-8.5 just incase you ever plan to run 175-184 grain bullets. I would go with a light Varmint contour barrel finished at 26”. If you want a blended muzzlebrake, then order a 26” barrel with an blended brake from NSS. The brake will make the overall length of the barrel 28” or so, but the actual barrel will still be 26” and the brake just adds length, but can be unthreaded if you choose to do so. [/QUOTE]
