    Found an AR Barrel

    been looking for a 10.5" .223 Wylde in 1:8 Twist and found this. I know Criterion are good, Is this a good barrel for $290?

    Criterion Chrome AR-15 Hybrid 10.5" .223 Wylde Barrel
    Criterion Hybrid contour AR-15 barrels offer an ideal configuration for those seeking extreme accuracy without the added weight of an HBAR contour. An indent is provided opposite the gas port to enable easy installation. Also included is an M4 barrel extension. These barrels accept muzzle devices with a 1/2x28 thread. Chambers are finisshed, but barrels should be headspaced and installed by a qualified gunsmith.

    These barrels are currently in service with the US Army Marksmanship Unit Action Shooting Team (1518S-HY12) and the US Marine Corps Combat Shooting Team (1516S-HY8-N).


    Barrel Length: 10.5"
    Twist: 1-8 RH
    Chamber: .223 Wylde (.223 Rem/ 5.56x45mm NATO)
    Gas System: Carbine
    Gas Block Diameter: .750"
    Weight: TBD lbs
    Contour: Hybrid
    Finish: Parkerized Chrome Molly (Chrome Lined)
    Threads: 1/2x28

            With your options slowly dwindling with no end in sight, I wouldn't hesitate.
            Criterion builds good stuff, especially the mil stuff.

                I wonder what the "1:8 RH" means. never seen "RH" next to the twist.

                    ?! never seen that.
                    does it make a difference if I'm a left handed? I'm shooting a right handed rifle....

                        Doesn't make any difference if you shoot over your shoulder sighting with a mirror.
