I've been looking for a barrel to replace my 10 BA stealth barrel. Its 308 and I want to convert it to 6.5 creedmoor. My problem I cant find one in stock. Not even a used one. Any help would be great help.
Thanks

Have you talked to Jim at Northland Shooters?

Not in stock anywhere but you have lots of options. You just need to wait a few weeks or 4. Pac-nor, Bugholes, X-caliber, Match grade Machine, Ragged Hole, Mcgowan, Bison, Shaw, and several more.

I had Savage replace the barrel on my 10 FP .308 years ago with a fluted target barrel.
Total cost was $427 including shipping and it only took a month.
The old rifle came back looking like it was brand new, except for the wear scratches on the bolt.

You might see if they would switch your 10 BA barrel to a 6.5mm Creedmoor

Should be a small shank. Do you want a "Krieger" 6.5mm cut rifle barrel, or your looking for something in-between vs. the stock barrel?

NSS probably has CBI and Shilen contoured blanks in 6.5 mm on the shelf, others may as well.
You can always have smith (if you can find one without a backlog) thread and chamber a blank for you to "possibly" save some time, but it'll likely cost a few bucks more...
