Looking to rebarrel a LH T3X stainless.
I really like the Tikka Lite/Superlite contour.
Wanting to duplicate this contour in stainless LH 23.5” in 7mm-08 Rem.
I’d really prefer to have the barrel fluted, just like the Superlite, but that’s not a deal breaker.
Those of you who’ve rebarreled Tikkas….Which barrel makers out there will do a factory Tikka lite/Superlite contour?
I’ve only had one custom barrel. “Redneck” here on the forum did a #2 PacNor on a LH Model 70 for me a few years ago and it’s been a great barrel.
I’ve heard good things about PacNor’s rebarreling service but do they do Tikka contours and will they finish(beadblast) the barrel to match the finish on my stainless Tikka action?
Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Leftybolt

I used Douglas to rebarrel my Mauser to 6mm REM. Turnaround time was less than 4 weeks. https://www.douglasbarrels.net/fitting-services

I've rebarreled a few, used Shilen and PBB, both make light contours. I've only chambered them in 308

Benchmark does a tikka t3 contour.
It was actually the smallest 9.3 they would do for me - cut.
