Barrels

[runner gunner]

Hey BFT,
Any idea when 18 or 20" barrels will be available on your website?

[BluntForceTrauma]

MONSTER 12s and 16s are due July 8, then I'll probably be doing a batch of 6mmARC, then 65G 18s and 20s after. So ... I'm guessing way out there, like 5 months?

[runner gunner]

Ouch, ok thx.

[Grendelshooter]

The 12 and 16 coming in July have the newer rifling?

[BluntForceTrauma]

Yes.

Sorry, have to ask a dumb question. What's the new rifling? Current description on the web site is:

"Button-rifled. Hybrid 5R 1:8 rifling with our unique 5R-EE (Easy Engraving) reduced-height rifling for decreased bullet deformation"

Is the new rifling different from this in some way?

Not a dumb question. The 'new' rifling is actually around 3 years old. Here's a response that includes an explanation from BTF.

For this latest round, I've tweaked the "new" rifling, so that the "new" rifling is even newer!

I've tightened the bore ever so slightly to account for the undersized Wolf steel-case bullet.

Barrels are gonna be better than ever at a price nobody can touch for the quality.

I’m going to keep following this.I may be interested in a 16 inch barrel for a hunting build.

Well, should I feel bad that I bought a NIB 2017 Faxon 12" Monster barrel from a forum member instead of waiting?

I don’t think you should feel bad, but I had a chance to get a 12” monster. But I knew he was changing the rifling ever so slightly so I decided to wait another month or two.

[Jeepthing24]

Can we get a status update on the barrels? Thanks

[BluntForceTrauma]

Got a status and barrels are at nitriding. Soon....

[Rkangel]

Got a BCM receiver anxiously waiting for the 12" Monster.

If you are thinking about it, flip it now.

Can we preorder these from you so we know that we will have one?

[BluntForceTrauma]

There will be plenty, no need to preorder. I will personally reserve one for you.

Thank you sir! I think I am going to buy two if they are at the sale price of $133 still.

[Rkangel]

I'm in for one, too!
