As I live behind enemy lines in NY, and i would like to build a featureless rifle, I'm looking for an 18" or 20" barrel that has just a target crown and no threads. Anyone have any good suggestions of a quality barrel under $300?

I bought a Shilen 20” DCM Service Rifle Profile barrel which is not threaded. I purchased mine around 2012 from Midway USA and my barrel shipped with a matched 6.5 Grendel bolt. My Shilen is more accurate than I can shoot it. My barrel is 1:9 twist but I have yet to shoot any bullets heavier than 123 grains.
The description indicates the barrel is threaded but it is in error as the barrel is unthreaded.

I’d do the 20” in thread less construction. That Wilson Combat barrel has me a-flutter.
