Savage pre-fit barrels?
Can you please make a 18.6″ 5R PENCIL BARREL mid-lenght gas system in 308 , 6.5 creed and 243 ?
Savage pre-fit barrels?
You are correct, I thought about that after I posted, the end result would be somewhere between what I said(average OD) and a non-fluted barrel and would be more rigid than a non-fluted barrel of the same weight.
However it still stands that the statement from MRA is false. A fluted barrel isn't as rigid as a non-fluted barrel of the OD.
Do you guys have final specs (especially weight) and pricing for the .308 barrels?
Will you guys be stocking any adjustable gas blocks? I’m very interested in doing your barrel kit deal for .308 with the tube, break though would prefer an adjustable block.

Pricing is $469.99 for the 18.6" in either Nitride or Stainless.
Weight is 2lbs 9oz. Not as light as we had hoped but still very light for an SPR profile due to our deep cut fluting.
We are looking at a Pencil profile to get down to 2lbs and these wont be available until December.
When are the 20" barrels due?
18.6" @ 2.56lbs is quite disappointing. I guess I will wait to see what the pencil barrel weight.
Agreed. We haven't started to run them. Going to begin this week but we are tweaking a few things to get the weight down. I think we can get below 2.4lbs. The Pencils will be down to 2 or less. They will be available in a few weeks from now with delivery end of November.
2lb 9oz is what a proof research carbon wrapped barrel weighs in at (18”). And yours is a fluted DMR? Doesn’t sound very disappointing to me. Might have to take one for a spin this November.
Our 308 barrels go into production next week. We are only doing SPR profiile with our deep fluting for the first batch. They will weigh under 2lbs.
We might look at pencil profile later in the year. Not sure we really need to do that considering our deep fluting makes our regular barrels so light.
Just a heads up, in your email it makes it sound like you are offering AR-10 barrels in 6.5 Grendel. Also you will need to make the change on your website.
OK that's 3 now... Looking more feasible to run a batch now.
