Wilson Combat Introduces Match Grade Barrels for Remington 700 Pattern Actions

 

Wilson Combat is proud to introduce a new line of match grade replacement barrels for Remington 700 pattern actions, bringing the accuracy of a Wilson Combat rifle barrel to the bolt-action rifles hunters and shooters already own.

Each barrel is precision button rifled by Wilson Combat's skilled barrelmakers from honed 416R stainless steel blanks, the proven standard for precision rifle barrels. The 416R is stress relieved at the mill, then each blank is stress relieved again after rifling, so every barrel is double stress relieved.

Every barrel follows the standard Remington factory contour from the shank forward, so it fits the stock or chassis the rifle already wears. It also fits high-performance synthetic replacement stocks with the factory contour and high-grade walnut custom stock blanks, with no inletting required.

Every barrel is finished the Wilson Combat way. The chamber is precisely cut and ready for final headspacing. The muzzle is threaded 5/8x24 TPI for a brake, flash hider or suppressor, and finished with a precision recess crown. The exterior is polished to a clean, satin finish, or it can be ordered in Armor-Tuff® for a durable, low-glare finish ideal for hard field use. The flared muzzle is engraved with the caliber, twist rate and the Wilson Combat eagle.

At launch, the barrels are offered in .308 Winchester with a 1:10 twist in a 20" length, and in 6.5 Creedmoor with a 1:8 twist in 20" and 22" lengths. .25 Creedmoor and .22 Creedmoor are coming soon. Each barrel has an MSRP of $399.95. Gunsmith installation is required.
