I have a 338 Win Mag barrel that I have acquired that I have no need for. According to the gentleman that I got the barrel from it is a Kreiger 1-10 twist, magnum profile barrel. Overall length is 24 inches, including threads and has less than 100 rounds through it. When I looked up similar barrels in the Kreiger website it looked like they were running $600-$650. I take $400 for this barrel, shipped in the lower 48. If somebody in Alaska or HI wants it I’ll need to get the actual shipping cost for the barrel. First I take it gets it. I’ll accept a good personal check or a USPS Money order as payment. I’ve done several deals here on AH as both buyer and seller without issues. I’ll be glad to talk on the phone prior to agreeing to a sale. Appreciate y’all looking.

@Wyfox, totally forgot that. Appreciate the reminder. This barrel was off of a Winchester M70 LH rifle that was in a McMillan stock. Let me know if there are any more questions. Thanks
 
Also wanted to mention that I do not have this listed elsewhere, only here in AH. If I am way off on my pricing, make me an offer via PM and we can discuss. I just based it on what I found at the Kreiger site. Thanks for looking.

Hi Roklok
I read your post on Caprivi. Congratulations.
I plan to hunt there for buff in 2026 oct.
How was the land, very dry ? But à lot of buffs ?
Thank you / merci

Chopped up the whole thing as I kept hitting the 240 character limit...
Found out the trigger word in the end... It was muzzle or velocity. dropped them and it posted.:)

This compares favorably to 7 Rem Mag. with less powder & recoil.

I know that this thread is more than a year old but as a new member I thought I would pass along my .280AI loading.
I am shooting F Open long range rather than hunting but here is what is working for me and I have managed a 198.14 at 800 meters.
That is for 20 shots. The 14 are X's which is a 5" circle.
