80% PREFIT BARREL PROCESS
Our 80% Prefit system is built around controlled production staging. We complete the rifling, hand-lapping, profiling, carbon wrap, and muzzle threading in advance — based on the most common configurations requested across today’s leading precision actions. Final chambering and finishing are then performed to your exact specifications.
This approach preserves true custom quality while dramatically reducing wait times.

Configuration Philosophy
Every configuration in our 80% Prefit program is backed by production data.
We analyzed our most frequently built cartridges, customer-requested twist rates, and action compatibility across premium manufacturers. The selected lengths and twists reflect what consistently performs — not theoretical combinations.
Where applicable, twist rates align with SAAMI standards and modern projectile stabilization requirements, ensuring reliable performance across widely used match and hunting bullets.
At Preferred, our philosophy is simple: make true custom barrels more accessible — without making the process overwhelming. We believe precision equipment should be straightforward to configure and should ship without painful lead times. Whether you’re a professional builder with full machining capability or a shooter swapping barrels at home, our goal is the same — to help you build your perfect barrel with confidence.
