Want to rebarrel my 300 WM Remington 700 LR. It already has the larger diameter varmint barrel so looking to go with a carbon wrapped barrel. What are my best options? TIA

I had a well known smith build me a 30 Nosler a few years ago. The only carbons he would use were Bartlein. He said they are the only ones that always shot well. They are a little heavier, because the steel liner is larger than most all other CF barrels. Could be why they shoot. Mine is excellent.

I have one of the Rem LR's in 300 Win. Great shooter, i use it for plinking & once in while shooting coyotes.

Why are you wanting to change the barrel?

I think I want to reduce weight slightly. Also would like to get a brake put on but paying $300 to do that to the old barrel doesn't make sense to me.....Also I think the carbon barrels look cool lol
