| I'm getting started on a semi precision/ varmint build, and I have a few questions. I am looking to get a 20 or 24inch bull barrel for this build. What are some good sources for something like this? I see alot of guys precision rifle barrels are stainless. Any reason behind this as far as accuracy goes? Also is getting a matched bolt a good idea, or worth the extra money? This rifle will most likely be used for varmint hunting, and punching paper. Thanks for any advice and info. |

no need for 24", I'd even say 20" is overkill.
Try this or just buy a complete RRA upper if that's more your thing |

RRA makes lots of great Bull barrel rifles. SS is kind of the standard but you can find the CMV barrels just they are harder to come by.
I agree 24 is overkill and they are insanely heavy. I recommend finding one that has flutes cut in the barrel it helps with cutting down on heat and makes the rifle somewhat lighter, I myself have a national match RRA upper I made in a build it is Bull under the free float handguard and HBAR past the gas block/front sight it is on the heavy side but I save weight having the HBAR end. You might look into that if you are concerned about the weight any, |
