[QUOTE="neilbfree, post: 2330988, member: 88593"] Looks like PVA is using two barrel OEMs - I got the Rock Creek cut rifled in 6BR, 26" m24 profile with the Jetblast brake. Weighs a ton but recoil is almost non-existent. When I do my part, I can hit a dime at 200 yds. I just ordered a 24" 6.5 PRC barrel from Preferred Barrel blanks - it is button rifled and a couple hundred$ cheaper - It is going to be a hunting barrel so if it groups around 1/2MOA, ill be happy. Now, if I could just find some 6.5PRC brass - so it goes. The controlled round feed on the TL3 picks up the 6BR cartridges very nicely and switching between 6BR and 6.5PRC only requires a $125 bolt head swap. In general, I am very happy with the TL3. I shoot lefty so finding a fun left handed bolt in the store is impossible and custom building is the only way to go. [/QUOTE]
