FYI: This is what happens when barrels are not packed properly for shipment

[Dennis]

All three major shipping companies have gotten pretty rough with packages. Personally, I now "double" line the barrels and ship in a square tube. I have not had any issues since. I use reinforced tape on the ends as usually it seems this is where the problems start.

The ID is 1.5"'s. I went to 3/16's walls on my tubing.

We also considered shipping in PVC tubing.

3/16th tubing is pretty tough.

Anyone have suggestions for heavy duty end caps?

These are for a Remington, but I am sure that they could make then for a Savage, or could be easily made.

Hello Dennis They make PVC end caps for the PVC tubing, the hardware store will have them, they aren't cheap though.
