If it's Shilen, it will likely say that it's Shilen in the literature................if it doesn't, it's likely Wilson. Can't remember for sure, but I think all WOA's Shilen barrels are 5R.
You can always call WOA & ask; they are very user friendly.

I have one, an 18" SPR, and it's a good shooter! Loves 69 grain SMKs. I haven't gotten around to the 77s, yet.

I prefer rifle gas on an 18" barrel. Runs smooth and no need for an adjustable gas block with a suppressor.
