New AR barrel Recommendations?

[brokeasajoke]

This might be under an inch all day long if I do my part, maybe. Seriously though they do have good prices for a low end AR but spotty customer service from some other experiences.

Wilson combat has great barrels at good prices. I pretty much use them exclusively on varmint rigs.

It's said my stainless wylde PSA is a Wilson but not sure which Wilson.

White Oak ..............You can't go wrong..............

White oak always comes highly recommended. As well as craddock precision or compass lake. That being said if you want a good cut rifle barrel with no wait . Look at the stainless Proof barrels. Usually they run around $425. I’ve had a couple and they shoot lights out. I noticed Bass Pro has a 16” on the cheap. Won’t last long at this price.

Wilson combat uses wilson barrels. Totally seperate operation but theres tons of folks that use wilson blanks

Wilson Combat is now making their own barrels. The ones I have chambered are shooting great.

Got an upper from Bear Creek two weeks ago, 20" heavy barrel. It is the most accurate out-of-box AR I have ever shot! First 10 shot group was one inch with hand loaded Sierra 55gr Blitzkings. Fit, Finish and Function were perfect..."all day long."

I’ve toyed with the Ballistic advantage barrels and some others. You might get a decent barrel you might not.

I believe White Oak uses Wilson Blanks on their Button Rifled Barrels.

+1 One of the most accurate AR barrels I ever owned.

There are two Wilson's making barrels. Wilson Arms and Wilson Combat.

I have only used the Wilson Arms Barrels & Blanks with excellent results. My son uses a Wilson Arms 20” AR barrel finished by WOA to launch 80 grain SMK’s out to 1000 yards at the Camp Perry Long Rang National Matches.

Based on Wilson Combat’s reputation, I would not be afraid to use one of their barrels either…. Just no personal experience with them.

 

[Dusty Stevens]

I thought wilson combat still used wilson arms blanks. They are making their own now and i have very good luck with them for varmint rifles.

Varminting or competition, White Oak.
For a Tac-rifle, Noveske.

Centurion and Criterion are two I always recommend for AR platforms. Centurion MK12 18” is a tack driver.
