Hey guys, what's the proper barrel contour for a .375 ??

I'm wanting something that will make it fairly easy to carry while remaining "shootable"..
Thanks

for Douglas and Shilen barrels #3 is the contour I use.....I then add lead weights to the stock to achieve the weight I want.

I prefer a #4 shilen, pac-nor, or douglas. A #3 is pretty much an ultralight for a 375. My current favorite 9.3x62 is a #4 pac-nor at 22.5", and it weighs about 8.75 lbs with scope and sling. I almost went with a #3 when I had the rifle built, but I am extremely glad I chose the #4 instead. JMO...

9.3
