I'll take some of the blame for yesterday ;D I also was trying to beat the price increase!! Hope you got ahold of him!!
Yes he did contact me will be ordering tomorrow.
Thanks
I sent a couple emails with my needs and looking for a price quote. No answer yet.
Call him!! He is a great guy to talk to and he will be the first to tell you he doesn't check/respond to emails very quickly. Give him a call!! ;)

I sent a FAX w/order details and that worked pretty well... that way he could call me back at his convenience. Now I just gotta wait patiently until my 8-twist .223 wylde gets here! :'(
;D ;D ;DCome on Jim!!!......Read your email or your PM buddy!!!.....there's a request in there (yeah.....from me!!!) to buy one of your in stock barrels!!.......Easy Cash!!! ;D ;D :D ;)
But...if I don't hear from you.....I'll call. I got this $$$ that's just burning a hole in my pocket!!!
Well......I found out it's just a whole bunch easier to call the guy and order what you want right there on the phone. My "new" Shilen 1-8 twist 6.5x55 Swede Varmit contour barrel is on it's way. ;D
I currently have a 6.5x55 in a 1-9 twist Shilen on my Savage action. I was considering selling it.....but after my Pronghorn hunting trip, I decided to keep it. This barrel shoots a 140gr. Berger VLD bullet at 2800fps with just a tad over the recommended load of RL-22 and with no pressure signs. Now, I would not recommend anyone else to try this UNLESS they work up this load very carefully with their gun.
I think with this 1-8 barrel twist it will be a whole new ballgame when I try some 140 Berger's and RL-22. I could be wrong, but I just think with the faster twist....I'm going to have a bit more barrel pressure to deal with, so my powder charges will need to be backed down some and maximum loads for the 1-8 twist will be less than the 1-9 twist. But, I'll see.
