Parts are going to take a while and there is no guarantee that it's going to work so don't get too excited.

Well this is certainly good news.

This is good news, opens up a lot more options if one wanted to do a barrel swap

It's almost as if someone would have an easier time swapping out the stock barrel for one of these:

well that's good news!
now for the next question...is anyone still having piss poor results with round jamming?
Ive tried 7 different mags now, and 14 different boxes of 308/7.62
its just a little irritating that I have to drop the mag and clear out the bum spent case every 2-4 shots.
the accuracy okay I can deal with 2-4 MOA as its a fun gun, but the reliability I will have to say throws me way off.

I was just checking with Rainier arms about their .338 Federal, here is example of their barrel I want, but 20 inch long is a special order which I will do

That sounds abnormal - I would talk to NEA and/or SFRC to get it warrantied.

Also, I would suggest that people get together for a group buy. For example, buying through Brownells, you will be charged about $250 for processing of export permit paperwork - if you can get a few buyers together that cost won't be so bad. I would definitely be interested in buying a another barrel in 260 Rem or 6.5 Creedmoor if this barrel swap works out.
those barrels are ###yyyyy wow!
yes maybe I should email BCL and see what they have to say. Im heading out this weekend and trying another 6 boxes so well see if I have any luck.
I use az tech armoury, they charge 35.00 for import permit for your first item and 10.00 each after, so if we got together and bought the same barrels, it would cost a total of 35 which we could divide
Something's not right. No jams after the first 50 rounds with mine and those original jams were plastic tipped Amax bullets. I run it wet during break in... Over 500 rounds now, runs 100% even with the rest of the Amax. Your accuracy seems off as well unless the loads are something it really doesn't like. See my range report.
hmmm good to know!! I shot BCL off an email, to see what they suggest. I have mine super lubed cause I was hoping that was the issue.
but did not seem to help. Im glad your guys are running how they should be that is promising. I think im on round count 250 and it seems to still be very un reliable.

I am very interested in a .260 Rem barrel as well... that is if these reliability problems can be solved.
Hey S3xspert11
check out this link post #7. https://canadiangunnutz.com/forum/showthread.php/1617127-NEA-BCL-warranty
I had a bunch of gas issues with mine. I sent it back to BCL. Cost me more than the part they replaced was worth. Get yourself a new gas ring for your bolt. It should solve the gas issue WRT not ejecting and getting stoppages. It is not the mag, it is a gas issue.
