Criterion 260 Barrel

Does anyone have the 260 and 6.5 Creedmoor specs for freebore, neck diameter and throat diameter for the Criterion barrels sold by NSS?

I called Criterion on a 20 Vartarg & they supplied the info.

They sent a reamer print for their 6mm Norma and Dasher chambers via email to me when I asked them.

.118 for the 260 if I recall, the 260 Match is longer

I had a CBI 260 Match chamber. I believe the neck is .298 and .160 freebore if memory serves.

I emailed Criterion, and they sent the information within a couple of hours. Both have a 0.298" neck and a 0.265" throat. The standard reamer has a 0.1185" freebore, while the 260 Match has a 0.160" freebore as BoilerUP and alphapygmy stated. Thanks for the help.

What is the standard barrel finish for a Criterion barrel?

We can do a matte bead blast finish too for a couple of extra bucks. Jim at Northland Shooters Supply can offer you a more specific quote for retail pricing.
