What to build with new .30 cal 22" full bull barrel from Proof Research

So I ended up with this nice barrel...now what to build with it?

I do plan to set up for can.

What hole do you need filled? No homo.

22 Inch ain't no good for a target barrel and a bull barrel ain't no good for a hunting rifle.
Maybe a fire poker.

22" is about the perfect all around barrel length. I had a 22" 300 Win Mag that shot lights out. Id do a hybrid shooting/hunting gun with it.

Thanks, that's what I am leaning towards. From my research the .300WM loses very little velocity at 22" and the bull carbon fiber barrel is very stiff but only weighs a little over 3lbs.
I was thinking of setting it up for my suppressor with a lightweight chassis. The bull contour looks good with the can...not like a pencil barrel with a counter weight on the end.

Goal would be a tackdriver that weighs in at around 7.5 to 8 lbs.

That's one way of looking at it I guess.

Didn't realize you had one of there carbon barrels. I thought it was there stainless barrel in the heavy profile,thats why I said it wouldn't be a good hunting rifle because of weight. With that being said it would make a great hunting rig. I use either a 24 or 26 inch barrel on my target rigs.

As long as the twist rate is appropriate, I think standard 308 would be very usefull.
