Details
Details
Features:
- Magnetic particle inspected and stress relieved
- 5 56 Chrome lined bore and chamber for high round counts and longevity
- Manganese Phosphate coating for corrosion and wear resistance
- Chambered for 5.56x45mm ammunition
- Government profile for light weight durability
- M4 feed ramps in barrel extension for reliable feeding
- Mid-length gas system balanced for reliability and recoil reduction
- Threaded 1/2x28 for muzzle devices like flash hiders, muzzle brakes, suppressors, and compensators
- 1:7 twist rate for bullet stabilization of heavier bullets
This 5.56 NATO barrel also features a government profile that is designed to reduce weight while still retaining rigidity and has a mid-length gas system that combines reliability with recoil reduction. It has a .750 gas seat diameter for the attachment of a variety of gas blocks from standard to adjustable. The 1:7 twist rate is designed to be used with heavier bullets like 62 grain and higher. However, it can still shoot lighter bullets, it just won’t be as consistently accurate. There is a large amount of 62 gr XM855 military surplus ammunition on the market for extremely low prices so you will be able to shoot with this barrel all day. And because the barrel extension has M4 cut feed ramps you don’t have to worry about reliability issues no matter what ammo you use whether steel cased or brass.
The mission at Spike’s Tactical is simple, they strive to build the highest quality products offered at the best possible prices. Whether a gun enthusiast, a competitive 3-gun shooter, military, or law enforcement professional, their rifles won't let you down when it counts, guaranteed.

Great Barrel!
by Phillip Burnett
Tested multiple types of ammo through this barrel on my last build. Consistent with everything from 50 gr to 77 gr. Shot 0.4 moa with ASYM 70 gr Barnes. Shot 0.9 moa with Black Hills 77 gr OTM 5.56 mm. PMC 55 gr FMJ shot 1.5 moa. Hornady 5.56 TAP T2 shot 1 moa. Federal 50 gr varmint shot 1.6 moaReally consistent point of impact throughout. Definitely could have tightened some groups up had it not been windy. Used RR 2 stage trigger and Millet 4-16 scope with bipod from prone.

Primary Arms does it again
by Nathan U
Trying to find quality parts at a good price has always been challenging. When I do price comparisons of items online, Primary Arms is always a top contender. I've bought from them before and I'm more than likely to come back.

Product Quality
by brad keene
What is important here is the products I have ordered are from reputable manufactures. Point is ordering from manufactures can be costly & time consuming due to the fact they make the parts u distribute them. That is where I judge U the most U have a reputation that u say got u have it. & u waste no time getting the products out to your costumers.
awesome experience.
