7mm WSM barrel options

[CJ]

Dear All,

Firstly i would like to thank the creators of this forum aswell as the members even though i am new here as i have posted a few posts and received some wonderfull advice.
i have also been reading many other posts on this site and like my mum always said.... "Learn somthing new each day".... and i have.

so to the question ....

I have decided on rebarreling my sendero to 7mm WSM

I would like to know from other readers what they recommend for barrel length and twist?

I have read an article on this web site already about one shooter building a 7mmWSM and he had a 24 inch 9 twist #7 contoured barrel from Boughton installed.

In any case what ever barrel i get installed i'm planning on having it fluted.

I'm looking at using 162gr A-MAX or Sierra 175gr Match King

Hot barrels

I suggest rereading that same article and contacting that smith with any questions you may have. When the time comes, I am hoping to have a triplet if you catch my drift.

+1 for Chris Matthews

Sorry... don't understand your last comment... Triplet???

The rifle in the article is a twin. Ric and his buddy had the same exact set-up built by Chris Matthews. I like everything about those rifles and want basically the same rifle hence triplets.

Triplet... yes of course.... i will post a thread once the job has been down with some results but that won't happen till early next year as i'm still out of the country.
