 :yeah: I feel it’s a lot better hunting setup then tactical style over sized release button some of these companies have hanging off of theirs. I have 3 of them and all have done great and traveled all over with me and been in lots of different conditions.

My brother accidentally dumped his in the snow this year also

I was using accurate but after accidently dumping my mag a couple times on my 30-378. I said not anymore and switched to wyatts. Never a problem since.

No, it’s being shipped directly  to me. I ordered it three weeks ago. Proof’s website says they are up to 12 weeks out. So it’s a waiting game. I ordered a barrel from Proof last year and it only took 2-3 weeks to arrive. I’m anxious to get it, but not inpatient.

FYI:  Red Hawk Rifles and Stocky’s usually can get a Proof Barrel to you in 3 or 4 days.

This place always has a lot of Proof barrels in stock and sometimes even in lengths and twist rates Proof doesn't offer to the general public.  I've bought Proof barrels from them before and they were great to deal with. https://www.evolvedballistics.com/

Can you cancel your order?  Evolved ballistics has the exact barrel you're looking for in stock and probably for the same maybe even a lower price.  You could have it at your doorstep by next week if you wanted.  I bought my last Proof barrel from them, they were great to work with.
