When Wayne from AHR gets back later in January he's going to chamber and send the .620 barrel blank to me, but it is NOT contoured, I will be getting it done here in Oz by my gunsmith

So I was wondering....

Just what barrel contour you guys have selected on your 600 Overkill rifles

I'm thinking of making mine about 25 inches long, 1.300 for the first 6 inches and straight taper to 1.00 at 25 inches plus 4 inch Muzzle brake

regards
S&F

S&F- That contour sounds fine, just make sure you have enough meat at the muzzel for your break. I assume your gonna thread it 15/16 X 24? This way you can taper the brake so it looks nice. I'd go 1.25 for 6 inches then straight to 1.0 at the muzzel myself.-Rob
