I have ALWAYS been pleased with their barrels in my bolt guns ... anyone used one on an AR? I ordered mine today .. 16.5, stainless, modified hbar, wylde, 1:9, rifle position tube (yes, i KNOW  ) will use a YHM popup front sight .. i LIKE those, and a "linear" compensator -- i have used the dpms one before, but going to try a kaw this time.. it looks cooler likely a DPMS carbon fiber forearm. hogue ergo or "fatboy" grip (i like the later) havent decided on stock or trigger... #dumptrump opinions vary band of bubbas and STC hunting Club Information on Ammoguide about the416AR, 458AR, 470AR, 500AR What is an AR round?

I use a McGowen barreled 458 socom AR, very accurate and no fouling problems. No experience with one in 5.56. "For they have sown the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind..." Hosea 8:7 | |||

mine shoots great - had to open the port to .094 as it was at about 85% function due to being under gassed - I'll try again another day on .094 and see -- it may need to go even more, but let's take it in steps. #dumptrump opinions vary band of bubbas and STC hunting Club Information on Ammoguide about the416AR, 458AR, 470AR, 500AR What is an AR round?
