None, it was a 375/444 before it was a 375 Bellm before it was a 375 JDJ

Sure am Mike. I think that Bauska has one but they are a pain in the ass for Mike to get. Great deal for sure, but it's a long process through Les..calling and placing an order then sending a check and waiting for it to clear.
Maybe we can just go wit a Douglas. That's what my 7mm will be and there price ain't that bad either. We can discuss twist and bore on the 40cal bbl. and correct me if i'm wrong but I think the groove dia. will be .400 with a 16 twist.
I'll go with a 12" or 14" barrel and am leaning toward the 12. You doing a shortened case like me or using a full blown 444?

I will need a 14 for this project. I am having trouble finding a barrel blank with the .400" groove diameter.... [Frown]

Chances are they are just bought out old stock from either a barrel manufacturer or gun manufacturer. Overstock or surplus.

GPC does that all the time.

The place is about 2hrs NW of me. Haven't been there in many years but the place is freaking unbelievable as far as a collection of gun parts.

It may be best to call a warm body as tons of stuff isn't even on their website. We are talking literally millions of gun parts there.
