AR Barrel question

[jimbobborg]

I'm looking for an 18" SPR profile barrel that's chrome lined. I have an 18" barrel now, but it's stainless, not chrome lined. Does anyone know who makes these now? I checked Noveske and CMMG, neither have them listed.

I noticed this in the description:

Our Hybrid Match Chamber allows use of .223 Rem & 5.56x45 mm NATO Calibers

Is that the same as a Wylde chamber? Or is wylde just a proprietary name some companies use?

sorry for the thread jack!

FWIW - The Fulton Armory house brand barrels are made by either Kreiger Criterion or Wilson...

What is the problem with the stainless barrel? Did you shoot it out or something?

What's the point of running an 18" if you are going to sacrifice ultimate accuracy?

My current 18" barrel is fine, I'm thinking long term longevity, stainless versus chromed. As long as I can make good hits at 400 yards with 77gr ammo, I'll be happy, hence the question.

Russ, are you referring to the chrome lining?

Thanks! I couldn't get onto the Daniel Defense site the day I posted this.

Russ, are you referring to the chrome lining?

Yes. IMHO if I wasn't going for absolute top accuracy then why not just run a 16" chrome lined barrel?
