I’ve got a 7mm Rem Mag that is in need of a new barrel, it has severe throat erosion. My Dad picked it up off the “tip board” at work.
The rifle had been shot a lot, and in rapid succession. The previous owner estimates that he fired at least 3,500 rounds through it and he got it used.
The rifle still shoots good currently, around 7/16” with my current load, but it’s speed has suffered greatly, it’s pushing 150 gr bullet 2700 Fps. That is with 4 gr over max published load.
I’ve come across a Shaw barrel that is a good deal from what I can tell, $160 to my door.
The barrel is new, never installed.
26” 4140 Chrome Moly with Matte Finish
Short chamber 7mm Rem Mag
Recessed crown
1:9.5” twist rate.
For a Post 64 Winchester M70
This is very nearly exactly what I’m looking for.
Just looking for some opinions on the Shaw barrels.
Thanks
