I know, from time to time, we of the Nation hash over barrel contours and dimensions. I'm kinda scratching my head on this one ...
I have a new Vanguard Wilderness in 6.5-300. Weatherby.com says it's a #2 barrel, but BOY! It's pretty thin ... almost like a #1 Mod on a Mark V ULW. Muzzle diameter measured by digital caliper says it's .575, which is kinda down there at #1 MOD range.
Any of the Wise Ones care to shed some light?
