[QUOTE="KQguy, post: 518336, member: 9704"] I just had a 7mmWSM built by a gunsmith,I ordered a 27" barrel for it.The barrel measures 25" behind the recoil lug.The barrels exact measurement is 24 15/16".I questioned him about it,and he said he measures from the bolt face to the end of the barrel.Is this how all smith's measure their barrels?I just assumed if I ordered a 27" barrel,I would get 27"(or close to) of actual barrel?
