Hi all,

I recently picked up a 22" take-off barrel from a Savage 16 in .250 Savage.

I'm also looking at a Model 14 in .250 that is supposed to be only a couple years old.

Was the .250 a factory chambering in the recent past for Savage or are these Custom Shop barrels/guns I am running into?

If it was a factory chambering, would it be a rarer find and as such maybe be a little more valuable? I feel like I can maybe buy this 14 for the right price.
