New budget.243 barrel

[snox801]

ok so I have a great friend who loves to shoot but can't spend a bunch. He bought a savage axis, did the trigger spring and it shot great. Now he wants to spend a bit of money on it and is thinking a new profit barrel also in .243. He wants to step up from a 22" to a 1/8 twist or 1/7 twist 25"-26". It's a all around hunting and shooting rifle for him so he prefers the lighter factory countour as he never shoots strings always tend to cold bore shoot his. Or doesn't care if the group opens. So what is his best bet for a barrel with it threaded for break. Anyone have any links to them. I've always just choose and had the smith do mine but being a savage a prefit makes sense. Looking for best bang for the buck

Thanks in advance.

ragged hole barrels would be a good place to start
