Last year with the .250 Sav Sako I fired a 2" group around a 1" targ dot with 5 different weight bullets ranging from 75grs to 120 grs- a 500 fps difference. That's an excellent barrel in my book!
    I know this has been a while. Do you still shoot the .450 Marlin and out of which rifle?

    I have been considering a barrel for one of my Savages in that caliber.

    No; I wasn't shooting it that often anymore and a nice 12 gauge SxS took its place.
    Of course I miss it. A short action Savage with a magnum bolt head would be a great platform!

    Understand. I would not trade my SxS for anything (it's also a family gun).

    I like the idea of having a ".45-70" bolt gun.

    I had a firearm rebarreled in 2016 by Pac Nor, they used their best grade barrel, it set me back around 550.00.

    Mine was on the P14 Enfield Eddystone.
    A Remington model 7 in it would be sweet.
