220 swift barrel

[Mthuntinfool]

hey everyone, I am looking for a 220 swift barrel to put on a mauser action. if anyone has one, or knows where I could find one, please let me know. I had planned on getting an adams & bennett bbl from midway, but now that I found an action, the barrel I wanted is discontinued. Thanks for any info!

Don't know your budget, but Lilja is right down the road from you. mtmuley

Assuming it's a large ring action I'll check on another forum and see if I can scare anything up.

If you buy a used barrel, be sure to have it trimmed back and re-headspaced for your rifle.

it is a large ring, a german K98. I didn't know about Lija barrels, I will check them out. I was looking to spend 100-150 on a bbl. but it also depends on whats out there. thanks guys!

These guys have good prices and appear to know their way around Mausers.

They did a rechamber and barrel snip for me that I'm pleased with.

First place I'd go to for work on a Mauser would be Mike McCabe in Lakewood, CO. http://www.mccabeguns.com/

I'm waiting to hear from a contact in CA who has an early model Ruger M77 heavy barrel in 220 Swift which is missing a bolt. Don't know if that could be an option but might be less expensive than a custom build.
