G'day. Anyone got a L461 VIXEN with a factory barrel? If so can you give me the diameter at tenon/front of action and muzzle please. Looking at a re barrel on mine (current one is not a factory barrel) and have been offered a vixen profile at 24 inches long. Just want an idea how much different it will be to my current one which is only 20 inches long but a straight taper to .850 at muzzle.

Thanks in advance
