Probably not,,,There's a reason people are sticking with the H-bar profile and fluting to loose some wieght.And at the same time increasing the surface area for better barrel cooling[kinda like radiator fins].I knew these two brothers that had a gun shop,,big into the military scene,knob creek was a bigger holiday than christmas to them,they used to brag and laugh about melting aug barrels with the greatest of ease.Have fun!!!!Clay P.S. For knob creek vid. clips go to www.biggerhammer.net

Anyone here have experience with an AR-15 with the super light barrel? I have shot a 16" bushmaster,(M-4 carbine with a fixed stock and fluted barrel) and it's super accurate. 3/4 inch groups at 100 yards are common, and 1/2 inch now and then.
Do the super light 16" barrels shoot as well? I was using match ammo with 69 gr Sierra match King bullets when I fired the Bushmaster
