Gotta cut and recrown it. I don't think anyone makes a barrel that short.

Matt, call Mike Melick and see if he has any barrels that are laying around.  I'm sure he would make you a great deal and might even cut and crown it.  I haven't heard of anyone doing a lot of cutting QB barrels so it may not be extremely accurate, but it's worth a try.  Let us know how it goes.  joe

If you want, you can order one from Archer have it shipped to me. I could cut & recrown it. Reblue the cut area and install it on my rifle. OOPS!!! I meant ship it to you! hehehe

Seriously though, if you wanna go that route. I can do it for ya no problem!
