cbi barrel lead time

**DanS** · 06-15-2013, 11:50 AM

That is encouraging. I just hope the quality doesn't drop with all the OT and rush to get things out the door.

**trailrider121** · 06-18-2013, 09:41 PM

Well I got the call today at work that my 260 barrel shipped today. Awesome, should have it ready for deer season. Hope others got a call as well.

I got the call today as well for my rem/age 6.5CM barrel. Excited to say the least.

**guhunter** · 06-21-2013, 12:45 AM

Got the call today. 25 weeks on the dot. Hope it's shorter next time!

**glassbeaver** · 06-25-2013, 02:55 AM

mine came today
I was told 16-18 weeks -last of July 1st of August
so it came quite a bit earlier

Could you clarify that ? If you ordered 07-01-2012 that would be a near 54 week lead time.

He's saying that it was due at the end of July beginning of August, not when he had ordered it.

Looks like is barrel came in after 12-14 weeks lead time.

**Willoughby** · 06-27-2013, 09:59 AM

gear grinder is correct
it came in about 12 weeks
instead of the 16-18 Jim stated when it was ordered
I fire formed some brass -last night after work
1st ten shot group under an inch (at 50 yards)-sighting in-
it looks like it has a lot of potential

I left work today and found two voicemails on my phone. One from Jim telling me my 284 Win barrel ordered just before Christmas was on the way. The other from Holland telling me the Reloader 17 and H4831 I need to power the 284 Win was on its way. This got me thinking that I need to leave work more often.

**redmister** · 07-07-2013, 07:31 PM

More than 19 weeks for me. I guess it'll be a winter project now.

**5spd** · 07-17-2013, 09:10 PM

Mine is now at 7 months.

**joe h** · 07-18-2013, 08:02 AM

and here i was wanting to order one, holy cow!
i wonder if theyve caught back up and on track for 12-14weeks?

**rjtfroggy** · 07-18-2013, 09:41 AM

No they haven't. I am now at 21 weeks supposed to be 10 -12.

northlander · 07-19-2013, 05:18 PM

I spoke with Criterion just yesterday. I have a large quantity of barrels shipping to NSS very soon. We will be processing and shipping these barrels as soon as they arrive. Brenda will be calling everyone as soon as their order ships.

Got the call last night. 23 weeks to the day, all should be here on Aug. 7th. With any luck it will be together for my Aug. 17th match, I still need to fit and finish the stock then find a load, so now the fun starts.
Thanks Jim.

Froggy - Ditto for me; I'm expecting the barrel on Monday and it's been 23 weeks. Good luck with it!

Berniep · 08-05-2013, 10:10 PM

I didnt keep close track because I was afraid I would drive myself crazy but I made a mental note of August or first of September and it came the first of August so I would say they are a little ahead of the stated lead time.

**jbsavage11** · 08-07-2013, 07:56 PM

I finally got the call that mine will be here on Monday after 31.5 weeks. I'm sure it will be worth the wait...

masterblaster · 08-07-2013, 10:36 PM

If I don't get a call by Friday I am thinking of selling all the parts and the new 111 300 mag donor rifle and getting a Rem 700 5R in 300 winmag. Shooting time is running out for me, my travel schedule ramps up next month through March next year.

j-red · 08-13-2013, 04:36 PM

I must hold a record at 36 weeks and still waiting... and for a simple .308 barrel at that! I've long since given up on the build and sold the action it was going to go on. I just need to get the barrel so I can sell it and recoup some of the money...

**rjtfroggy** · 08-13-2013, 04:41 PM

Why not call the vendor and cancell for a refund. Their fault not yours shouldn't be a problem.

j-red · 08-13-2013, 04:51 PM

I've not pushed it since he normally stocks 26" barrels and this is a 24", thus making it a "special order." Typically special orders are non refundable, and in the times I've explained the situation to them, a refund has never been offered. I ordered it before the price increase, so hopefully it comes in just when someone is all fired up to build a 24" 308 and I can recoup most of the cost. fingers crossed.

**5spd** · 08-13-2013, 05:13 PM

Yeayyy....my 20x45 bbl is to be here Thursday after ordering it last Dec.

That's strange... I just got my 24" 308 barrel yesterday. I waited 32 weeks for mine.
