Brownells
Building a custom sporter on a Mauser 98 action just got more accessible. The Brownells Mauser short chambered barrel in 30-06 Springfield with 1-10 twist gives you a factory-grade, ready-to-install foundation without the custom-shop price tag. This 24-inch barrel is button-rifled from 4140 chrome moly steel, stress-relieved to minimize warping, and comes crowned and fully threaded—all the hard work is done. What you get is a compact, fast-handling profile ideal for hunters who value maneuverability in the field, paired with the precision geometry that makes hand-finishing the final details straightforward for a gunsmith or experienced builder.
The short-chambered design means you'll need to finish the chamber and set headspace to your action's specifications, then handle the exterior polish and blue work. This approach lets you dial in the exact fit and aesthetics you want while keeping costs down compared to a pre-finished barrel. The 1-10 twist rate handles the full range of .30-06 Springfield loads, from lighter varmint rounds to heavy match and hunting ammunition, making it versatile for various shooting applications.
If you're a Mauser 98 builder looking to avoid the premium markup of pre-finished custom barrels, or you're comfortable doing final chambering and finishing work, this Brownells offering delivers quality materials and proper geometry at a price that makes the project feasible.

Yes, this barrel is designed for Mauser 98 actions. Since it is short-chambered, you will need to finish the chamber and set headspace to ensure proper fit and function with your specific action.
The barrel arrives ready to install on your action but requires finishing work: you must complete the chamber, set headspace to your action, then polish and blue the exterior to your preferred finish.
The 1-10 right-hand twist is the standard rate for .30-06 Springfield and will stabilize the full range of factory and handloaded ammunition in that caliber.
The barrel is fully threaded at the muzzle, allowing for installation of a muzzle brake, suppressor, or other threaded accessories after you complete the finishing work.
