Reply With QuoteIf the factory barrel is shooting good groups have the barrel trimmed and crowned to 22 or 20 inches an rezero. A lot cheaper than a new barrel.

If I bought a new model 10 predator max 1 in 6.5 creedmoor, could I spin off the factory tube and spin on a CBI light varmiter and have it fit the accustock without modification? I think this gun comes with a fluted medium varmiter barrel but I can't find dimensions of the factory barrel anywhere to compare it to the CBI. I like everything about the gun but the 24 inch tube. If this would work and I decided to go this route, would there be a market for this barrel wher I could sell it to get some of the money back I spent on the barrel? What would it be worth?
Thanks in advance for any insight.

I think it is the heavy sporter contour on them. I just ordered one from Jim as I was in the same situation except for the Accustock. I would have cut and recrowned but fluting ruined that idea. Give Jim a call @ Northland he can hook you up.
the barrel dia is right at .700 at muzzle if I remember correctly.
I have a couple of Model 10 Max 1 preds in 243.
(soon to be slow twist 243AI and a 17/204 just got my barrels in)
Might want to shoot it before you buy the replacement barrel.
I bet it may just surprise you.
