[QUOTE="Max Heat, post: 848010, member: 43153"] I placed an order with McGowen about a month or so ago for one of their #8 (HT - heavy target) contour barrels, with a finished length of 32", 7RUM chambering, and a 9" twist. And it will be finished in nutted (remaged) fashion, with no additional smithing needed - I'll be the one installing and headspacing it. The contour goes from 1.2" at the chamber, to 1.0" at the muzzle. I was considering changing the finished length to 33", but then it wouldn't fit in my hardcase, so I dunno. Due to the current backlog, I won't have it for at least another 2 months though. This will probably be a dead thread by then, but I'll try to remember to find it and post a pic of the rifle with the new barrel installed. "The waiting is the hardest part" - Tom Petty [/QUOTE]
