muzzle diameter

Is a .570 muzzle diameter a thin lite weight barrel or do they come smaller?

That would depend on rifle and caliber. For a 17 cal it would be pretty heavy. For a 50 cal it would be plum dangerous!   KN

Look at some of the rebarrel sites like Shilen or Shaw and they'll give you the minimums.
