If you dont mind me askin what did those set you back. I am new to the board and from the Charleston area also. As a matter of fact my father used to work for Douglas back in 1967.  I have several guns I have collected over the years with Douglas barrells and have always been satisfied with thier quality.

You can't go wrong with a Douglas.  The company will even custom profile.  Sure it will cost more than a standard production barrel, BUT the bore will be straight and centered.

I wonder how much a medium contour middy would run?


BTW, are those barrels ready to go? Probably not headspaced right?

Those are sweet!  Another Charleston area native checking in and curious about cost.

I been wanting to build up a Remington 700 with a Douglas barrel but now I"m thinking a free floated upper using a Douglas barrel might be another good project
