Good feeding, but not very accurate, very dirty
by Mike P. -
The good thing is it had no feeding issues, I guess due to the large feed cone.
Not so good news is it's not quite accurate. It shoots 1.5-2" groups at 25 yards, slightly preferring 124gr. However, at 50 yards, it's a random 6" spread for 10 round groups, both for 115gr and 124gr.
Another thing that I noticed with the BA barrel is that its blowback is very dirty, seems like it pushes back much more dirt and unburned powder than barrels with more traditional, less "generous" feed cone. The orange magazine follower turns coal black after just several rounds.
Good barrel
by Philip gray
This barrel was my on my first ar15 9mm build. It runs flawlessly with all kinds of ammo. And with Winchester 147gr hp i got one inch groups at 50yds and 3in. At 100yds
