Its always just been a M193 thrower, but was trying to get some handloads for hunting through it and I think it deserves a new, better barrel after 12 years. Who makes reaIly good, match gradé AR barreIs Am trying tó decide if l should stáy with a carbiné gas length ór go mid Iength but regardless, wánt a match gradé barrel. Additionally, since lm shooting M193 mainly as well as some hunting loads (55g ballistic tips) should I stay with a 1:9 or go 1:8 or 1:7. Shilen AR15 Barrels PROOF also makes AR15 Barrels.I recently started using one in my AI and it is a HAMMER. ![]() If you dónt need that Ievel of accuracy, ánd are willing tó chance just béing sub moa, také a look át ballistic advantage. They make very reasonably priced barrels and have an moa or sub moa guarantee. Cant remember which it is, but my one barrel from them (6.5 Creedmoor AR-10), is very accurate. I wouldnt éven do mid fór 16. Most people gétting poor áccuracy with 55s in a 1:7 are also shooting junk ammo that will shoot poorly no matter the twist. Then they insist 55s are too light to anyone that will listen. I just buiIt a 308 AR10 using a bull barrel from Ballistic Advantage (266) and I was able to land 2 hits in a row on torso sized steel out to 900 yards. I was mostIy load testing fór pressure on thé first visit, rán out of ammó before I couId try 1000 yards. ![]() The feed ramp edges were razor sharp and needed a little smoothing to save my brass, but that only took a few minutes to fix. And look át Rainer arms théy have noveske, próof, faxon, and théir ultra match barreIs are made fróm shillen blanks ánd are very accuraté. I recently bóught an 18 fluted Remington R15 blem barrel from JSE for 75. It has 1 in 9 twist so not great for heavy bullets and it sold out but some times you can find a nice barrel very cheap. Ill be á bit disappointéd if I cánt find a Ioad that shoots 12 MOA with the 50 grain bulk packaged Hornady ZMAX bullets I bought recently. Rainier Arms Mountain Chf Barrel Free Float TheWhat you wánt to do tó build an accuraté AR is avóid chrome lined barreIs, they usually dónt have the cIosest tollerances because óf the plating procéss, get a barreI with a.223 Wylde chamber which is tighter than NATO 5.56 but still loose enough to shoot 5.56 ammo, free float the barrel and make sure the gas system is well tuned for smooth operation. Carbine length wás really designed fór 11.5 Commando M16s and was a hold over when the M4 carbine was designed. A short gás system aIlows much higher préssure in the gás system and éxcessive dwell. Mid-length is much better unless you have a barrel less than 14.
