[QUOTE="LongRangeJunkie, post: 1167507, member: 23996"] That is all good to know. I guess I should have asked some question on here before my last rebarrel/cartridge change. I purchase another B&C and had a #5 contour barrel installed based on what Stocky's told me. After cutting the channel out, I thought to myself this sure did not take much out and probably could have gone to a heavier contour, but again I was going by what Stocky's told me. The factory barrel is 22" and I had all intention of going longer, but I did not know enough to decide on how long I should go and get all I wanted out of the 223 ai round. I do not want a bull barrel but wanted heavier than a #5 contour and now I know I can. I am fairly new to all this, even though I have been a member here for years (more reading, admiring and wishing than actions........all because of finances). Now I am trying to take what I have and improving without going to a full blown custom, until I am competent enough to justify such an expense. Thanks for all the good info. [/QUOTE]
