Nesika J Barrel options ?

G Day

I have aquired a Nesika J action and am seeking opinions on what barrel length/weights this action is suitable for.
Will probably build another 6br and have a 28" 6.5 blank for 6.5-47. I glue my actions.

Thanks, Cameron in Oz
 
My Nesika J sports a 21" LV Broughton 5C barrel in 6ppc which I use for IBS score matches. Weight is limited to 10.5 lbs. in this event. Before you select a barrel, you need to determine what competitive discipline you wish to participate in. Be mindful of the weight constraints. I would suggest that after you know what the gun will be used for, you discuss barrel weight and length with your gunsmith.
 
Sorry, I should have made myself a little clearer.
I shoot F Class Open in Oz and our weight limit is 9kg,around 20lb).
I am after opinions on what weight/length barrel this size action can carry without too much stress. My current F Class rifles have longer actions and carry heavy 30" barrels without any problems.

You should have no problems with the Nesika J handling a 30" HV barrel, if it is set up in the stock right.
