Tell me what 6 mm Tika prefits I should stock.

Sounds like I can order at least 5 6mm 16” or 18” 6 ARC.

Do I go 18” or 16”? My goal is to have barrels that I can sell and won’t be on the shelf long. I want to get barrels that people want, even in smaller niches.

It ties up a lot of capital to have barrels on the shelf, which means I can’t buy barrels that others want.

If you said 16” or 18”, can I split the difference and do a 17” barrel?

I'd buy a 17"...

Not sure when you're doing it but keep us posted.

17" would be great for the Tikka 6 ARC prefits! I'd go for anything from 16"-20" in a really lightweight profile. Would these still be under $500?

For now, the first time I pick up a barrel for the store, then the pre-orders are going to be right at the $500 mark, since they have the longest wait.

When you say really lighweight profile, does Preferred's Lite Hybrid work for you? It is similar to the Tikka Lite, but modified to fit 5/8 threads.

That sounds like a great profile if there isn't anything like Ryan Avery's Noodle Barrel at the same price.

As I build out inventory, I want to develop and stock a "noodle" line of barrels. That's gonna be at least a few cycles away before that happens.
