Adding your products to cart

The Thompson/Center Contender family—including G1, G2, and SSK‑50 receivers—is celebrated for its modularity and precision. At EABCO, we stock an expansive selection of match‑grade barrels for these platforms—tested by long-range hunters, silhouette shooters, and wildcat builders alike.

Our EABCO Accuracy Barrel lineup includes pre‑fit barrels engineered for drop-in installation, as well as custom barrels in configurations ranging from .17 HMR to 45-70. Features include:
-True, center-to-center barrel turning at a rate that minimizes stress while keeping the bore in the middle,
-True, center-to-center chamber reaming insures centering and linear alignment of the chamber with the bore. Each chamber's headspace is checked and confirmed with gauges. --True, center-to-center 11° target crown, applied after finishing, insures that bullets exit the barrel with perfectly even gas pressure.
-SAAMI match-grade chambering with finish options including blued or stainless—all tailored for ultimate accuracy.

Industry & Use Cases

Silhouette & Competition Shooting

Heavy bull contour barrels resist deflection over multiple rounds, key for steel target series.

Hunting & Fieldcraft

Lighter sporter or fluted barrels balance quick follow-ups with accuracy.

Wildcat & Custom Caliber Builds

EABCO’s custom shop can chamber barrels in wildcat rounds like .224 Valkyrie or 6.5-284, offering tailored ballistic advantage.

FAQ

Will a Contender fit my G2 receiver?

Yes, EABCO barrels are built to fit G1, G2 and SSK-50 receivers interchangeably with proper headspacing.

Do you chamber custom cartridges?

Yes, we offer approx 100 calibers as a custom option.

Are pre-fit barrels plug-and-play?

Yes, the beauty of the Contender is the ease with switching barrels. Simply pull the locking bolt out and replace the barrel. (be sure you have a compatible forend)

EABCO's decades of experience in crafting Contender-compatible barrels means we build the consistency other barrels only promise.  Every barre, pre-fit or custom, is tested for concentricity and chambered to 2/1000ths of an inch for maximizing performance, round after round.
