Who was doing the custom Tikka barrel with the Fieldcraft profile for threads?

[MuleyFever]

Saw someone comment they were having a barrel done for a Tikka with the muzzle swell for 5/8 24 threads like the Fieldcraft. Wondering who was making the barrel. I cannot find the thread.

Thanks, that is what I thought I remembered but could not find the thread to verify.

FWIW, I had two barrels done like a fieldcraft by my gunsmith. I bought Rem Varmint profile barrels and had him turn them down. Worked great and Rem Varmint barrels are in stock a lot of places.

Lilja told me they could do it that profile but not as a prefit. I haven't committed to it yet because I'm unsure how a suppressor would do on that skinny barrel not being full length bedded like a fieldcraft is. I guess that's another rabbit hope to go down.

I’ve done two builds with barrels contoured like the field craft. Both of them shoot excellent. What you will notice is that the POI will shift when you remove the suppressor.
