options on AI pre-fit barrel

[exoto1225]

Hi all,
I've been shooting 6.5x47 lapua on my AT with a Wintac barrel for 2 years. Although this barrel still holds the performance, I want to keep another new one just as a backup. and then I learned that Wintac has ceased making barrels in 6.5x47 lapua recently. I'm fairly new to this sport, what are my options on AI pre-fit barrels? PS, I'm thinking of stainless steel, heavy contour barrels. I need some suggestions. thanks!

Lots of Hide venders can cut you a prefix for an AI action. Deep South Tactical cut my last one and did an awesome job, I also have an osprey from PVA waiting in the closet - all accounts are those are hammers as well.

Mh, euro carry wintac prefits

It typically is not going to be a standard option from some barrel manufacturers as a pre-fit. Definitely some folks out there that can cut a custom in 6.5x47.

i have 7 barrels for my AI cut from PVA and 1 from GCP down in Florida. They both do awesome work. Proof has them, Mile High has them, Bugholes, LRI, Dave Tooley, etc. Its a good time to own an AI as far as barrels goes.

The nerds at Hawk Hill could fix you up.

@bohem aka Josh at PVA can make you up a barrel no problem. They have the Osprey blanks in stock and they are excellent.

Manzella Precision, he worked at ai chambering barrels for a handful of years. He does great work. His cnc setup is phenomenal.
