18" 25 Creedmoor 2lb Barrel?

[7SAUM-J]

I'm looking to re barrel a Savage 110 Ultralite with a 25 creed barrel. This will be a real light weight backcountry type build. 18" and a thin steel only profile with fluting to reduce weight further. I'm hoping to get down around the 2lb mark or close to it.

Does anyone have any suggestions or tested profiles they like for this?

Thanks!

I recently got a PVA 18inch 6cm in the tikka hybrid contour threaded 5/8x24 and it was 2lbs 6oz with no fluting

For reference

The same barrel with their helical fluting should get that down to 2 lbs. My 20” 7 cal barrel of that configuration is just over 2 lbs.

Thanks! Maybe I do a 19” then! Ha

What contour and flute pattern did you go with?

.25 should be a little lighter:

PVA .680 Taperless 18" 6 Creed with 6 straight flutes is 31.45 oz
