The Criterion Barrels Hybrid contour is a mid-weight barrel that offers a perfect balance between weight and intelligently distributed barrel material for excellent heat absorption and consistent harmonics. This barrel can be easily carried in the field all day but will also provide exceptional performance even under extreme use and high rates of fire.Headspace (the bolt to barrel fitment), must be checked for optimal performance and reliability. Proper headspace produces consistent chamber pressures and seating depths which results in increased accuracy and reliability, while reducing wear and tear on internal parts and components. FeaturesChrome-lined internally for superior barrel life and corrosion resistance. Chrome-lining process is the most refined in the industry and will not degrade accuracy.Honed and hand-lapped rifling for bore uniformity and a pristine internal finish - aids in barrel cleaning and paramount for accuracyFinely polished chambers for reliable extraction and...
