I've got a DPMS AR10 in 260 Rem with a 22 Heavy barrel and thinking about re-barreling to 6.5 Creed 16" or 18" for hunting suppressed. What brand of barrel does the THF brain-trust recommend for accuracy?
I was wrong...on anything technical. Fitz............. is right, ya know............

Wilson Combat if they're instock. I've also had pretty good luck with Ballistic Advantage barrels. graniteridgeoutfitters.com has the 18" in stock and use code MOA for free shipping and 10% off.

Wilson Combat. I have their complete Tactical Hunter. It has a 20" 1-8 twist and shoots fantastic. The accuracy I get far exceeded my expectation.
An unethical shot is one you take, that you know you shouldn't.

My Rainier ultra match shoots an inch at 300 yards with handloads. Never heard of them, I checked them out. Their no questions, money back guarantee is hard to ignore. Says a lot about the confidence they have in their stuff.

Says a lot about the confidence they have in their stuff. I've had one of their ultra match barrels before and they shoot great too.

What kinda of price range are good 6.5cm barrels $275 to $450. Can go much higher but that is the range I've seen for popular brands.
