24” tikka D18 stainless in 6.5creedmoor this barrel has 300ish rounds on it and has been exceptionally accurate with 130tmk it consistently shoots right around 1-1.1moa for 20 rounds. I also have a tikka factory brake for it that can go with it as well, it’s not stainless though and I didn’t see where it did all that much for it so I didn’t use it much. $175 shipped
20” Carbon Six 1:7.7 22 creedmoor. I can’t remember what the contour is called but it’s their lightest one, feather weight maybe? This has 200ish rounds through it, the cartridge just wasn’t my thing. I didn’t do a lot of load development with it using h4350 it shot 88s ok and 75eldm pretty well. The only issue I had with it is it doesn’t like a longer string of fire. The first 5-6 will be nice and tight but the next 4-5 will open up if shot steady. I went to shooting 5 shot strings or less and it was fine not sure if it’s the carbon barrel with such a high velocity or if it’s a stress relief problem but I want to put it out there. The barrel shoots it’s just picky about the rate of fire for sure. The head space was tight in my action but within spec, the throat seems more in line for shooting 75-80g bullets it’s pretty short for the 88s. $300 shipped.
