[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 435252, member: 12"] IMO not a "best" barrel. Decide first if you want cut rifling (Krieger, Brux, Bartlein, Satern, etc) or button rifling (Hart, Broughton, Shilen, Pac Nor, Lilja, Douglas etc ) Broughton is the 5C (canted rifling also) You will get good barrels from any one of the above. You if shooting up to 210s in a magnum, you can easily go 1-11 or just go with a 1-10 twist quite safely. I would call/email each and see what their delivery time is also. Could be as little as "setting on the shelf to 6 months" then decide on a reamer. I would call Dave Kiff at PTG tell him what you want to shoot and let him send you your own reamer. That is $150 and well worth if you are staying with the 300 Win mag. Decide on a very good smith that when he rebarrels can clean up your factory action for a reasonable fee and skim bed it when done. BH [/QUOTE]
