I want to buy and have installed a new non-magnum barrel, probably 7x57. I do not want to do a lot of inletting. Can anyone please tell me the contour or dimensions of the original 798 non-magnum barrels? I want as close as possible as a drop-in fit.

From what I can tell,the m798s are about a no. 2 contour barrel in standard calibers. To all gunmaker critics- "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena.."- Teddy Roosevelt
