Christensen Arms Pre Fit Cf/Ss Bbl 20 Thread 7Bc
$699.00
The Christensen Arms Pre Fit CF/SS barrel in 20-thread configuration is a precision-engineered, pre-fitted replacement barrel built for Remington 700 actions. Built around a 416R stainless steel core and button-rifled for consistency, this barrel gives you the performance upgrade of a custom shop without the wait—drop it in, headspace, and shoot. Whether you're building a hunting rifle or a long-range precision platform, Christensen's modular approach lets you swap barrels to match your mission without swapping actions.
The 7BC designation indicates this is a target-profile barrel, featuring a gradual taper that prioritizes rigidity and shot-to-shot consistency over weight savings. That extra stiffness in the tube translates to tighter groups and more stable zero shifts—exactly what matters at distance. Each barrel ships with a muzzle-end thread protector to keep those 20-TPI threads safe in transit and storage. Estimated weight runs between 2 and 2 pounds 15 ounces, depending on the exact contour specification.
Christensen's pre-fit barrels are chambered and headspaced at the factory, cutting your install time and eliminating guesswork about chamber fit. You'll need basic gunsmithing tools (or a qualified smith) to properly install and time the barrel, but the precision fit means no surprise headspace issues or chambering surprises. This is a serious upgrade path for shooters who already have a solid 700 platform and want to refresh the barrel—or who are building a custom rifle without the full custom-gunsmith price tag.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this barrel fit my Remington 700?
Yes, this is a pre-fit barrel for Remington 700 actions. It comes chambered and headspaced from the factory, so installation is straightforward for a gunsmith with basic lathe and headspacing tools. You should not attempt installation yourself unless you have professional gunsmithing experience.
What is the difference between target and sporter barrel profiles?
Both profiles start at the same diameter and finish at the same muzzle size, but taper differently along their length. Target barrels (like this 7BC) taper gradually, keeping more mass throughout the barrel for greater rigidity and consistency in precision shooting. Sporter barrels taper more quickly, shedding weight for hunting applications where you're carrying the rifle longer distances.
Can I attach a suppressor or muzzle brake to this barrel?
Yes. This barrel features a 20-TPI threaded muzzle, which is a common standard for modern suppressors, brakes, flash hiders, and other muzzle devices. The included thread protector shields those threads until you're ready to attach your chosen muzzle device.
What caliber is this barrel?
The product information provided does not specify the caliber. Contact Bosque Outdoors or Christensen Arms directly to confirm the chambering of this specific pre-fit barrel.
