Oh, then it's a full length rifle barrel, 30" measured from muzzle to boltface. See, told you it was a rifle! LOL!

How much did you pay for the rifle?

[browningautorifle]

Sounds like a cut down rifle to me...rifle's 30" and carbine is 22"...I'm pretty sure. Maybe there was a ring at the muzzle, or someone's ham handed attempt to re-crown it. But to front of the action? Try a rod down the barrel with the bolt closed. Measure the rod, you may have the whole barrel there.

with bolt closed an rod down barrell its 30 inches on the dot

So, now there's one more to rebuild. Or, sell it and let someone else re do it.
