Don, I don't think I would get another barrel from them at this time. The Jury is still out on the one I have. It was to far out of specs from what I ordered. I ordered a .438-.446 and got a .4495. And scoping that barrel I see grooves on top of the lands and it's pretty rough. But so far it's showing good down range results with what I put down so far.
Having a XX Douglas .22 barrel mounted on that action will run a little over $600.
I tried to twist the barrel off the action and put the .22 on. I could not get it loose by hand. It's still tight on the action that It might take two or hold the barrel in a vice and twist it off. I think changing them over a few times it will make it easier.
