    Pass? 1500 amd counting on one rifle still looks like new, if your actions that rough to rip it apart think bolt is last of your worries

    Ok sounds good.

    Depends on barrel been done?
    My stock blanks are 1.2-1.35ish depending on bore size, 1.25" diameter knox 3"long amd 26" that's blank not threaded or chambered etc

    Can't state price as not advertiser here

    That same barrel weight for carbon wrapped works like a big heavy barrel been much stronger amd stiffer they don't seem to wonder much with strings amd look slick.

    Cost is competitive tho to fluting. . . . . .

    In the case of a barrel can the carbon be tapered to a normal profile or is it parallel only?

    Only go with them as light as a standard #3 contour. All mine are tapered not parallel. Apart from target ones I have done.
