I am in the early stages of finding out what my options are.
McGowen is just the first one that I have talked to. That is why I am asking about them to see what kind of quality their barrels are. I want to have it chambered in 6.5 Grendel, 22", and I want the barrel contour to fit in my existing miniaction chassis without modifying the chassis. I would really prefer to have a Lilja, Bartlein, or a Krieger barrel and I was hoping someone could steer me to a gunsmithing house that is able to install one of those brands on my Howa miniaction and do it right.
I do 100% my own handloads.
I read all of the advice on the forum that states "get a better barrel" and I now have the opportunity to be able to do that so that is what I am attempting to do. Maybe some days I will get the accuracy and some days I won't be able to but I am willing to spend some money to find out.
As far as the Howage nut goes I would rather have a standard mounted barrel.
Thanks for your input.
