If it is not a popular bore/twist, then yes, the waits can be long with any of the match barrel makers. I tend to check the lists of barrels that they have in inventory from overruns or canceled orders and every so often you get lucky.
In spite of the stories about long waits, I decided to go ahead and order a barrel from McGowen.
Two weeks after I mailed my check the barrel arrived. 26" ss varmint contour in 300 H&H.
a thing of beauty
Now if everything else shows up, I'l be putting it together soon.
