I talked to Dennis over at the "in stock" mcGowen outlet barrel site, Ad above, and have been looking around at a lot of barrel makers in stock inventories lately and thought I would start a thread of what other barrels to keep in stock, IE you could buy and have it in your hands a week later so this is aimed at all the vendors.
My list here some are somewhat popular beyond the normal calibers.
9 twist 223 barrel are a dime a dozen, but you can never find a 7 twist.
Other good calibers are vaporware too.
I think first would have to be a 223 7 twist 26" small shank varmint barrel.
They are just vaporware, and I cant find one anywhere other than a custom.
6.5x55 swede,
284,
338 fed (low recoil hammer with good ballistics with a 160 gr TTSX)
375 Ruger
Profiles etc I would like to see....
3 below all available in 26" varmint 30" bull
223 7 twist
6.5x55 8 twist
284 9 twist
To that add
308 10 twist shorty 18-20" maybe
308 10 twist long throat 30" bull for running the 208 amax long maybe.
338 Federal 10 twist light magnum contour probably 22" at least for me.
To me this is the perfect low recoil hog sledgehammer.
Savage should definitely add this caliber to the hog hunter rifle.
375 Ruger 12 twist 24" magnum contour.
