I really don’t care what it looks like, so long as it shoots. We have a MGM Contender 21 inch tapered barrel in 17 Hornet that goes a half inch. I don’t see any problem with their small caliber barrels.

MGM/Preferred are very easy folks to get along with.
I am pretty sure that if you miss with that, it's not the rifle!

Only problem is that I ordered a barrel with them February 3rd and after an email every other month asking for an estimated delivery, they've stopped responding the last two times.
