I have a Brux #3 contour barrel that I am selling.

Chambered in 6.5x47 Lapua

25" long and threaded and chambered for a Rem 700.
.62" at the muzzle

I also sent it to MMI Trutec and had it nitrided. It barely powder fouls and the copper clean up easily.

Its a .294 No turn neck with .140 FB. This is the optimal freebore according to Kiff. It allows you to shoot just about every bullet.

My OAL lengths are

2.675" with 123 Amaxes
2.725ish with 140amaxes and 130 Bergers

Its a very fast barrel. I was running the 130 Bergers at 2950 with 37.5 grains of varget....no pressure signs

I will also include the recoil lug that it was head spaced to. The lug is a tapered PTG .200". It has been nitrided also.

The barrel is light. It weighs 1lb 15oz.

I only have 300 rounds through it.

Barrel and Lug are in excellent condition. The nitride is the deepest, sexiest black you have ever seen. I had MMI bead blast it before the process so it matted the finish a bit.

Please ask any questions


I would also be willing to let the purchaser use my carbide reamer to headspace the barrel. A deposit would be required and I would expect it to be returned in a timely manner.

$450 shipped.


Here are some pictures of it attached to a rifle

I wouldn't want anyone touching a Nitrided barrel with any one of my reamers
 
It might be able too, but it has to be very hard on the reamer. Plus you would be cutting the coating off of the throat where you really want to have it.
