Just spoke to Jim at Northlander's. I called to order a .243 AI Match barrel. I expected that I would get the 1 in 8 twist, but had really wanted a 7.5. He tells me that they are now offering 7.5's. Sweet. I will probably have it in November to get ready for Spring. He also mentioned that they are offering an 8.5 twist for 7mm barrels. Great shooting custom barrels and great dealing with Jim.
