I just picked up a Rock light palma barrel in 6.5 this week. Just for grins, I was comparing this barrel to Krieger's profiles, and it came in at a medium Palma on their chart.
aalf,
I appreciate the reference, thanks.
I will be ordering a Rock Light Palma and will probably have it fluted.
Did you have yours ordered or did you find it on the market?
Envious here...
I have this thing for the 6.5x284 and keep getting drawn back to it in spite of barrel life. It's just a performer.
I like your idea of the A5 and the scope. A 4.5x14 LR will be riding mine.
