Question Contender Barrels

Got a question, Do any of you know of other businesses making Contender barrels besides Bullberry, SSK, or Virgin Valley (which is now out of business)? I'm getting ready to order a barrel, and just checking to see if I missed any options.

Tater,

Thanks. I appreciate the info. I checked with them, and they can't (or won't) make the barrel I'm trying to get. Their prices are about the best out there though...

I'm trying to get a .357 Maximum carbine-length barrel with a .358 bore diameter, and a quicker twist rate than normal.

The only custom barrels I`ve tried for the T/C`s were Bullberry`s. I do have a 15 in. in .357 max. and it shoot`s sub moa groups.

Thanks for all the input guys! I really appreciate it. I ended up going through Bullberry.
