Looking for a Barrel
Hi All,

I am in need of a 6.5mm barrel with an unusual contour. I'm hoping that one of you gentelmen have one in stock and can either contour it or contour and chamber it for me rather quickly. I will take care of the rest myself. Please let me know either in this thread or via PM.

Thanks,
Marcos (elalto)

Tom,

Thanks, I could use either an 8 or 9, I intend to shoot 100gr or lighter bullets. I am trying to make a 6.5 X 225 for predators. The barrel needs to finish at 20 to 22".

Thanks again,

What kind of action are you using? Any reason why you are necking up a 225? Have you considered the 6.5 Grendel?

SmokinJ,

I have a TCR 83' which is a break-open single shot and I would like to make a barrel for it in that caliber. The 6.5 Grendel is a copyrighted caliber and a rimless case. The 6.5 X 225 would be, pretty much, a 6.5BR and it would be a rimmed case. Also, I have a lot of 225 Winchester brass.

Thanks for your interest,
