Seekins Element Hunter – Early Thoughts

[Skookum_25]

Are there any others making prefit barrels yet? The options look limited to Straight Jacket. The idea of a caliber swap for a trainer sounds appealing.

The tennon specs are widely published, any smith that can cut to a spec can do it. It's more of a matter of whether the smith trusts seekins holding spec without having measured enough actions first hand.

EuroOptic has a handful of Seekins prefit options available for order. I snagged a 20” 22 ARC barrel for ~$550.. Seekins recommended R1 Precision and Straight Jacket for prefits if you wanted something different than what Seekins is offering via EuroOptic. R1 Precision quoted me $750 for a 18” 22 Creed and a 4 week timeline. They noted it would be identical fluting and contour as the Seekins barrel.

Appreciate it!
