The Proof Research Stainless Steel Bolt-Action Barrel (brand part number 100769) is a 24-inch .308 Winchester barrel double-stress relieved from 416R stainless steel and pre-fit to drop into a Savage-pattern action without a full gunsmith rebarrel job. Machined by Proof Research for match-grade accuracy, this barrel carries a stainless finish and a 1:10 twist rate suited to standard .308 bullet weights, and it is threaded 5/8-24 for common muzzle devices. Because it is engineered for Savage’s factory barrel nut system, an experienced shooter can often complete the swap without a lengthy shop visit.
