6.5cr = 2660 with 140gr ELDM's
338 Fed = Approx 2550 with 210gr Partitions
What are the barrel lengths and twist rates? Interested in the x47. 22" perhaps?Heads Up:
Just got a shipment in, there are a few 6.5x47 and .243 barrels available.
Sure, but it won’t do you any good. 6.8 western requires a magnum bolt face and at this time, that’s not an option for the cross.Would it be possible to get a 6.8 western barrel?

I know that y'all have been a little busy, but any more info on this? I read some conversation over on SnipersHide suggesting that the Cross might be too thin where the barrel and receiver join to support a magnum chambering. Any truth to that?From initial talks with gunsmiths and some folks at SIG, it was not recommended. This is because there isn't a lot of "meat to work with.' Looking around the edges of the bolt face, you can see it is already relatively thin. A replcement bolt face is a better option i think and something we are also looking into. I'd love to put a 7SAUM in these things.. - Matt

Thin? The bullet seats into the barrel so I'm not sure this is true. Semi auto sure but on a bolt gun the barrel and bolt/stops take the force.I know that y'all have been a little busy, but any more info on this?

I communicated that poorly-I think the concern was that the the magnum chamber would thin out the barrel walls too much for safe operation.Thin? The bullet seats into the barrel so I'm not sure this is true. Semi auto sure but on a bolt gun the barrel and bolt/stops take the force.
It's not all about bolt thrust if that is what you are alluding to, there is hoop strength to deal with as well. Tenon diameter matters. A Sig Cross if I'm not mistaken is a 1" dia tenon. Not much wall thickness for a magnum chambering. Sounds like asking for headaches.Thin? The bullet seats into the barrel so I'm not sure this is true.

Dang, that 20" 308 went fast. Any guesses on the next round?Just a heads up, we got a fresh batch of barrels in. Many are already spoken for, but currently we have the following available, although I expect them to go quickly:
308-16"-1:10T-Sendero
308-20"-1:10T-Sendero
6 Creed-20"-1:8T-Sendero
6.5 Creed-18"-1:7.5T-Sendero
Just give us a call, we can order whatever, whenever. The barrels on our website are just the ones we try and stock.. but they sell out quickly. 800-922-1562Can we order from carbon 6 or you? Having to get what's available is kinda a pita
