Hi all,
I plan on ordering a custom barrel from preferred barrel Blanks for one of my Tikkas. I want to do a 30-06. I'm split between getting a 20" and 22". It being a 30-06 I'm not really looking to build a "long range" gun so I'm thinking 20" is plenty. I do have a couple of supressors so it's a thought to run it suppressed. I want to use PBBs Tikka hybrid contour and threat it 5/8x24. I want a new barrel because I want a faster twist so I can shoot big bullets slow and in general want to learn how to swap barrels. If you guys have any suggestions shoot away. I'm even open to different calibers. I like 30-06 because its versatile and I can easily get brass, powder, primers and bullets. Before I go drop $600 I figured I'd check in and see what people think. The main function of this rifle will be elk out to 400 yards but I'd like it to be my go to all around rifle for hunting everything possible.
Thanks!
