Patriot Valley Ams- Osprey 6mm Prefit Barrel Group Buy

680 taperless should be about like a tikka lite.

9/16 threads is all it will take though if that matters.

thats what I ended up going with. spiral fluted .680 taperless threaded 24 in 6cm. I'll weigh it when I eventually get it. now need to find a 9/16 brake

The taperless gets to the final size by like 6" from the breech and continues to the end of the barrel the same size. A taper barrel at 6" slowly tapers off to the end. The taperless barrel is lighter.

The taperless is not lighter if you chose an appropriate contour for the taper.

I can see why, that’s a different program for every inch.

We busted PVA balls pretty hard and got the 750 and 680 taperless.

Someone should buy a 680 and weigh it. I think I’d go with that for a 22 cal barrel, but I’m good on 22 cal hunting stuff for a while.

If it was that expensive to do, I don't think tikka would be making them in countless numbers.

Finally got around to shooting my 6 creedmoor. 26” osprey 750 taperless with standard pva reamer, on a tikka.

Shot a few to get in the ballpark and then this 10 round group. This is Berger factory 105s. Chrono says 2920fps.

Very happy with this so far

Updated in the other thread but forgot here. My 24 inch 6cm with spiral fluting and 9/16 threading was 2lbs 9.8oz

That would make a light 223 at 18”
