[QUOTE="lacajun, post: 1743952, member: 20922"] I have a M700 35 whelin that I will taking to the local smith for a new build. I have a couple short actions that I had re barreled a few years ago.one in 260 and the other in 6.5 CM. Both of these builds have Remington varmint contour Bartlein barrels and are a little on the heavy side. On the long action this time I am leaning on towards a 280 AI and would like to end up with a lighter rifle but one will still shoot tiny groups. probably going with a Bartlein again but something lighter than the Remington varmint contour. My question is how far down in barrel size before I start giving up accuracy..... cant afford a carbon barrel BTW Thx.. [/QUOTE]
