[QUOTE="sable tireur, post: 2510103, member: 27307"] I'm unsure about this idea as with a hunting barrel, very few shots are usually considered. The only variable I ran into was depredation hunting where the number of consecutive shots could be higher. Now target shooting can be vastly different, of course. Watch a LR Benchrest match or an F-Class competition.;) The contour I have used for quite a number of both competition rifles and depredation hunts is the #19 Hunter. Very stiff and has a little more barrel weight and the diameters to allow for decent fluting. I look for longer breech lengths, as I dislike those which come with a 2.5" or 2.75" breech length. [ATTACH type="full"]359680[/ATTACH] Enjoy the process! :) [/QUOTE]
