I am assembling a PRS gas gun division legal AR15. This build will likely motivate a second build in an AR308 configuration down the road.
I am (im)patiently awaiting Ridgeline Shooting to drop their line of SPR/DMR pattern barrels, but they aren’t available yet, so I may have to get something else. I am not going to (at this juncture) have a custom Bartlein, Brux, Krieger, etc barrel turned. So I am looking for turnkey options.
I have made a list of a few that include: Rainier Arms Ultra Match, Criterion, BCM and a couple of others, but I’d appreciate some input on barrels members have experience with—particularly barrel life, ammo favorability, accuracy and velocity.
I will be buying and/or loading 77gr SMK (I have a lot of it), so any input regarding this bullet performing in a 16” and 18” barrel would be great, too.
