[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 60432, member: 10"] Brian B, Generally, when I hear my customers start talking about +30" barrels with diameters over 1.250" I instantly recommend the V-Block. Also, Someone wanting the absolute in accuracy and rigidity in a rifle for any use I always tell my customers about thsi system. It really is not needed with a barrel of 30" or less and a muzzle diameter of 1.000" or less. Some rifles can use a 1.250" straight cylinder barrel up to 30" in length if a relatively mild round is used. But if you start driving a VLD or ULD bullet down the barrel that is 1.5" in length with a bullet weight of 200 to 300 gr at +3000 fps, barrel whip will be an issue and this is the design goal of this system. To offer performance that the 700 and other factory actions could never reach without this system. I will admit that I also like my rifles to be clean looking. There is nothing better then setting up a rifle that looks like a big but otherwise conventional rifle and punching 1/4 moa groups at 1500 yards. Really will get some attention from onlookers. You get the same quality using the Clamp Block system but when you unpack that beast everyone knows whats under the hood if you will. I like to build "sleeper" rifles. As far as the Holland V-Block. It is not a problem at all to rebarrel this system. Only thing is you need a barrel built to the contour used with this V-Block. Holland uses only Pac-Nor Super Match barrels for his V-Blocks and as far as I know, Pac-Nor is the only barrel maker building barrels to this contour. I believe Lilja would build barrels to this contour if I got Dan the specs and paid the special contour price. Fitting a barrel for the Holland System is spendier then a conventional rebarreling job or even one for my V-Block simply because of the two threading operations needed on these barrels. So to answer your question, yes they can be rebarreled. Good Shooting!! Kirby Allen(50) [/QUOTE]
