Light and accurate

by

I have two of these barrels one has an A2 post and the other is free float. Both will consistantly shoot 1.5 -2 MOA with M193 or hunting and defensive loads. Both also will shoot sub moa with their choice of match grade loads. Great barrel for a lightweight build. Ballistic Advantage and Primary Arms both are great companies.

Couldn't be Happier!!

I built an AR-15 carbine for my wife using this fantastic barrel! I used a Polymer upper and lower, light buttstock, light BCG, standard A2 muzzle device and a light 12" rail. Total weight with an AT3 RDS is 5lb 6oz. It gives me 3/8" groups at 100 yards off the bench. My wife couldn't be happier!!

Great lightweight barrel

MUCH lighter. My wife loves the lighter feel of her rifle now.

by -

9 ounces less than a standard M4 profile. That "9 ounces less" really makes a difference in "feel" when the rifle is shouldered. Bought to replace the barrel on my wife's rifle. She loves how much lighter is it now. Probably buying another to replace barrel as well. ZERO difference in recoil "feel" with the reduced weight, and preliminary testing showed no negative difference in accuracy compared compared to the previous M4 profile barrel. Might even be more accurate than previous barrel.
