Yeah, but...there are VERY few folks for whom a Chadash 66 mm Bb barrel can
substitute for their 65 mm Chadash A barrel, even with a new Richard Hawkins

works for you. >>

Don is right. Most really good "A" barrels are smaller in diameter (and
sometimes longer) than a Bb barrel, often by about .004. This can make a big
difference in intonation and response.

I really really tried to use the same barrel on both my Bb and my A, and if
the truth be told, the results on the "A" were just not good enough.
