Contour Barrel Weight Calculator-help

Anyone have access to a contour barrel weight calculator? I need to come up w/ the approx. weights of the following three Shilen barrels:

- .338 #3 finished @ 24"
- .416 #3 finished @ 22"
- .458 #4 finished @ 22"

There was a time I was good at calculus, now long gone.

Thanks,
Gary
