This barrel came from the factory 20.5” long with sights. I used it sparingly and ultimately returned it to Blaser to have sights removed, length cut to 16.5” and muzzle threaded 5/8-24. It currently has a Thunderbeast 30CB suppressor adapter installed with red Loctite (271). Low round count. Comes with a magazine insert and a thread protector if you want to take the adapter off. $1500.

Shoots great. I zeroed it with SIG Sauer 150 grain HT copper hunting ammo. 3 shots under an inch at 100 and I went hunting. Took 2 wild pigs with that combo.
 
I’ve removed the muzzle device and lowered the price. $1150 shipped.

I think that would be a great little carbine, with the R8, the action shortens the over all length considerably. One bullet to try in it would be the CEB 130gr. flat based Raptor. Nifty! Brian

Do you mind me asking what auction you are referencing? I'm not in the market for any of those rifles...just curious.
