I purchased this barrel as an AX 24” .308 Win AINA take off barrel from the Hide in late October with 240 documented factory rounds. I verified the serial with Bartlein, and they confirmed they sold the barrel to AI as a .30 cal blank in 1:10” 5R.
I sent the barrel to Dave Tooley to cut, thread 5/8-24, and cap in early November. 16.75” left the muzzle thread shoulders a touch farther away from the serial and chamber engravings. I received it mid-November and ran 50 documented rounds suppressed through it prior to deer season. It was placing rounds clustered together in the same impact splashes at 600. A 178 ELD-M was leaving around 2540 fps with a mild dose of 43.5 Varget in Federal GMM cases.
I just prefer my 260, so I pulled the 308 barrel and zeroed the 260 at the range that same day. Barrel is basically brand new with no nicks, scrapes, scratches, etc. I also cleaned it with KG. It’s ready to install and shoot. Barrel will come with screenshots of documented rounds from previous owner, and my Excel spreadsheet.
$SOLD shipped via UPS Ground. PayPal gift preferred.
