I am seriously considering buying a Winchester XPR (towards their high end) or an X bolt. I am still deciding what model fits my budget and goals. Ideally, I will find something 22," light, coated barrel and action.
As I am narrowing down my choices, I have come upon a couple of models with 24" sporter contour threaded M13 - 0.75 barrels with normal radial brakes.
Have any of you used a can like a Nomad or EVO Ii on barrels like that? I know I can get a direct thread adapter, but are their sporter weight barrels strong enough to work well with a 14oz (ish) can without accuracy issues?
BTW - there are close out deals on X bolts if you use google fu.
