Christensen Arms 300 Prc 22'' 1-8 Twist Sporter Contour Carbon Fiber Barrel
CHRISTENSEN ARMS
The Christensen Arms 300 Winchester Magnum 22'' Sporter Contour barrel delivers a lightweight, hunting-ready replacement or build option for Remington 700 actions. Built around a 416R stainless steel core and button-rifled with a 1-10 twist, this barrel strikes the balance hunters need: enough rigidity for magnum performance downrange without the extra weight that slows you down in the field. At an estimated 2–2.9 pounds, the Sporter contour tapers quickly from its 1.20'' breech diameter to .920'' at the muzzle, keeping the gun responsive and manageable during long days in rough country.
Christensen's reputation for precision barrels is built on consistent bore quality and attention to detail. The 300 Win Mag chambering is a proven long-range hunting round, and a 1-10 rifling rate handles heavy hunting bullets well while remaining accurate with standard loads. This barrel arrives with a muzzle-end thread protector, ready for installation on your action or to be fitted by a gunsmith.
Whether you're building a lightweight mountain rifle, replacing a worn barrel on an existing Remington 700, or stepping up your hunting platform's accuracy, this Christensen barrel gives you the components used by competitive shooters and serious hunters. It's the kind of upgrade that pays dividends in consistency and confidence afield.

Both Sporter and Target barrels share the same 416R stainless steel core but differ in taper. Sporter barrels taper quickly for reduced weight, making them ideal for hunting rifles where you carry the gun long distances. Target barrels taper gradually for greater rigidity and are better suited to precision long-range shooting from a bench or rest.
That information is not provided in the product specifications. Contact Bosque Outdoors for details on threading, or consult with a gunsmith during installation.
A 1-10 twist stabilizes a wide range of 300 Win Mag bullets, including the heavier magnum hunting loads favored for elk and other large game. It's a versatile rate that works well with both premium hunting ammo and standard loads.
