Contender Hunter barrel measurement
« on: April 26, 2012, 01:09:49 PM »
I am wondering what the actual length of a 12" 30-30 hunter barrel is. I haven't been able to find much information on these anywhere I have searched. Did the Hunter barrels have the muzzle break on them? And if they did, was that  included in the measurement . Is the actual rifled length of the barrel closer to 10" then?

Yes my 30-30 ten inch bull barrel is 9.7/8 if you get technical.

Yes, the muzzle tamer is included in the length measurement. You have 10+ inches of barrel with a brake on the end.
