Pva has one I think

Edit: I think they only do 1/2-in thread on that one though

Anyone had the 750 fluted?

I have one on the way that is going to be spiral fluted.

Please share the weight whenever it makes it in. Would love to know. I believe this will be my next barrel.

My 6CM .750 PVA Taperless came in at 37oz.

18" 5 spiral flutes.

My PVA 18” .750 taperless 6cm, not fluted is 38.5 oz (2 lb 6.5 oz).

I love the barrel but next time maybe I’ll try one of these Ace noodles.

Got my PBB 6 PRC barrel today. 18”, .750” taperless, diamond fluting, threaded muzzle and cap. Weighs 2 lbs 2.6 ounces

Here is a pacnor for a 6CM. .550 before the muzzle flare. They left a lot of meat on the shank.

She’s got a great personality.

@Ryan Avery what would this contour be so we can order it ourselves? Would ace cut it with the muzzle flare to shorter than 20” as well?

The muzzle end looks great. Did anyone explain the thought process on the shank end? Seems like they left a bunch of weight for no reason?

I’ve had an email into them for two weeks with no response. Might need to call

I asked ACE to create a 6mm barrel with the lightest contour possible for my 6UM build, aiming for a total weight of just under two pounds. The barrel is 20 inches long and measures .568 inches at the muzzle. I should be able to shoot with it this weekend.

@Ryan Avery what twist have you settled on? Does it change w/ barrel length?

Here's a McGowen 18" 6CM Tikka lite hybrid contour with spiral flutes. 2 pounds exactly

What do you mean by Tikka lite hybrid?

 

[letrbuck]

What do you mean by Tikka lite hybrid?

I had them copy PBB's contour by that name. Best I can describe it is a factory tikka contour that allows for 5/8 threading

 

[MuleyFever]

Did you have to supply the barrel for them to copy or is this something they just have? They don't offer any Tikka contour on their site.

I had to send them the specs and pay for the custom contour

I did the same thing, except mine isn't fluted. They nailed the contour, and all the machining looks good.
