Price as of January 2012: $375 plus shipping
UPDATE: As of January 2011 we have changed our design on the Anschutz drop-in barrels. The rifling and chambering remain the same but we've made a simplified improvement on the attachment / extraction area of the barrel. For more details - Click Here

Barrel Data
- Stainless steel .900" diameter straight and 21" long.
Weight: 3 pounds 8 ounces
- We usually have longer
27" barrels in-stock as well.
These barrels are a true match-grade barrel, we only have one grade
for all of our barrels, our best. All of these barrels are made
from 1" diameter 416 alloy rifle-barrel-quality stainless steel.
Every barrel is drilled, reamed and rifled in our shop followed
by a stress relieving heat treatment operation. They are then hand-
lapped for a superior internal finish and diameter uniformity. With
these drop-in barrels we then turn the shank end of the barrel to
the proper dimensions and cut a true
match chamber.
The barrel is then cut to final length and crowned with an 11 degree
target-type crown. Each barrel is then polished to a 600 grit exterior
finish and then our name and the cartridge designation is engraved
on the barrel. And lastly the finished barrel receives a final inspection
and is sealed in a 6 mil poly tube and placed on the shelf.
Accuracy with the Anschutz barrel is excellent. At 50 yards with
the Bull barrel 5-shot groups in the .2's and often better can be
expected.
Drop-in barrels do not require any special gunsmithing. Directions
for installing the barrel are furnished with each barrel. These
instructions can also be found directly below. If you do not feel
qualified to install your new drop-in barrel we can do so for a
$25 charge.
Note: We do not make a drop-in type barrel for any of the other
Anschutz models, just for the 2007/13. One of our barrels can be
fit to any other Anschutz receiver by a gunsmith. We do not do that
installation.
Installation instructions for
original Anschutz 2007/13 design:
To remove original barrel:
- Backoff single 3mm set screw on bottom of receiver.
- Loosen (3) 4 mm socket head cap screws.
- Pull original barrel out of action.
To install new barrel:
- Slide barrel into receiver until it contacts loading ramp.
- Place Go Gauge in chamber and close bolt.
- Tap barrel from muzzle end to ensure barrel is up against the
Go Gauge. This step is very important.
- Tighten 3 mm set screw on bottom of receiver.
- Tighten (3) 4 mm socket head cap screws to a torque setting of 75 inch pounds.
We offer .043" Go Gauge made
by Pacific Precision for $19.
Installation instructions for new style Anschutz barrels:
Beginning in January of 2011 we have changed our barrel shank design from a copy of the Anschutz factory style to a modified 360º radius cone shape. The advantage to this style is that it allows the shooter an infinite number of positions the barrel can be rotated to. This allows fine tuning of the barrel. The chamber end of the barrel is machined so that the extractors will work in any position. The Lilja logo and cartridge designation can be placed in the traditional position but you are not limited to that. The basic instructions outlined above for the original Anschutz design still apply for extraction of the old barrel and replacement of the new barrel and the use of a headspace gauge is still mandatory.
