I got the barrel from midway usa wanted the 264 win mag but wasnot in stock so went with the 6.5 I already have a 264 in a model 70 winchester and wanted another but pretty excited about the swed The cost was$251.00 shipped from midway and this is a blued 26inch barrel they have them listed in the back of the big book as late additions or you can find them online at midway this is a  custom shop barrel
