The Christensen Arms Pre-Fit Barrel (brand part no. 8100003165) is built for Remington 700 actions only, chambered in 6.5 PRC and cut to 22 inches with a threaded muzzle. It wraps a 416R stainless steel core, button rifled for consistency, in Christensen Arms’ signature carbon fiber construction, cutting weight compared to a solid steel barrel of the same length. The barrel starts at a 1.20-inch diameter and finishes at .920 inch, and a threaded muzzle end ships with a thread protector installed until a suppressor or muzzle device goes on. With a 1:8 twist rate, it stabilizes the long, heavy-for-caliber bullets the 6.5 PRC is built to run at extended range.
