[QUOTE="Savage 12BVSS, post: 1863895, member: 112413"] I have a LW match barrel they built for me in a special profile and chambered for a specific OAL 260 cartridge to fit the magazine of a short action with 2.900 magazine length. Took a while, if I remember correctly 6 weeks to arrive from Germany. It shoots lights out and is easy to load for, it will shoot two's with an accubond or matchking bullet and I'm very pleased with it. Cleans with very few patches and have no regrets at all. I have noticed that it has about the same round count as a 7mm-08 McGowen barreled rifle, I have had to chase the throat about .003 on the McGowen but the LW still hasn't moved. Wasn't a big deal to me either way but they are similar fps and rounds fired so maybe they are a tad harder. I never base my barrel choices on what competition shooters are using, the LW was suggested by my gunbuilder I deal with a lot. Dave [/QUOTE]
