Looking for any sales/deals on prefits. I have two kelblys I need barrels for, open to all options.
 
following. It seems like only preferred barrel have prefit for Kelbly. It wouldn't be my first choice.

Ya, same here. I have a criterion lightweight varmint coming for a range barrel but really looking for a carbon for my long action in a 7prc.
 
Check evolvedballisics.com if you are interesting in proof research. They have a few for Kelbly. Contact Paul, he usually will give a discount.
 
Proof
Carbon Six - 6-10 month lead time
BSF
Preferred Barrel Blanks - 16-20 week lead time
McGowen - 12 week lead time
Straight Jacket Armory
Patriot Valley Arms

Kelbly prefits are not that hard to find.
I wanted another Carbon6 but I’m not waiting that long. I’ll probably go for a Proof as they have 25 Creed barrels in stock.
 
Opticsplanet has proof prefits for under $600. Take an additional 13% off with their father's day coupon. Plus active junky if you use it.

Not a bad option.
 
If you're looking for a deal I bet Xcaliber will have a 4th of July sale. You can order it to your specs and their wait isn't normally that long. My 6 creed shoots very well.

Father's day sale right now. Fluted and threaded prefit for under $500. Go get one.
 
Aren’t barrel nuts required for these tho?

Yes. Red locktite the barrel nut once you get it set and it acts the same way as a shouldered barrel.

Personally I go shouldered barrels now just for peace of mind but its not too big of a pain. They sell nice barrel nuts and I had mine bead blasted to match the barrel. It looks good but if you want a budget option sometimes you gave to give.

Call them and make sure they can cut it for a Kelbly.

I actually have a x caliber carbon being chambered by fisher tc in a 7mm prc. X caliber will not prefit for a kelblys, kind of surprising but they won't. Even criterion will do it for an additional $50.
