Guys, the barrel arrived. Douglas 5A contour. About .750 at the muzzle. I am quite satisfied. I now its a little heavier than some of you prefer, but I think it will be just what I want. I like the looks and the heft. I think I can fit it into a McMillan Hunter Game Scout stock (or possibly a Manners TA1) and end up with a nice packable coyote rifle.

Thanks all for the advise. Much appreciated.
