Antelope sniper,

That is one of our proto Wyoming Arms guns.

Basics are:
16 inch barrel in 5.56
Billet upper and lower (tan gun)
Geissele MK I tube with a WA titanium barrel nut
Geissele Hi Speed Super Match Trigger

It has middy gas and a rifle buffer so it is stupid reliable and very smooth. It will really show you how well you are shooting.

Sometimes it has the old tried and true VX 3 with my reticule but I have been messing around with the MK 6s and the 3-18 has potential. grin

Asking about a "most accurate barrel" and then restricting it to a .300 blackout and then saying you shoot "long range" is like saying you want a great 4x4 SUV that you can drag race, but will only drive on the interstate.

.300BO is not exactly the most inherently accurate AR based round there is and should be anyone's last choice if they are even remotely interested in "long range", let alone "accuracy".

Form, can I ask please: Was the lighter 155 gr. bullet & 1/12 barrel combo still shooting subsonic?

Thx,

Your whine is duly noted.

I was right then and I am right now.

Nothing has changed but your hormones.

You will learn more by watching.

I always say build a man a fire and he will stay warm for a day.

Light him on fire and he will stay warm for the rest of his life. wink

"... most accurate barrel ..."

Rather subjective I'd say.

The more you spend on a barrel, the better your chances of getting something accurate.
Money, in and of itself, doesn't make the barrel accurate, but that more care was taken to produce it.
THAT said, the most accurate barrel I possess I found on sale for $58! 😳

Next off, I don't care how much you spend on a barrel, if you mount a crappy scope, accuracy will suffer.

Missed it. I think you're just a fcking tard. Retarded setup, retarded design.
I see you have that dumb-ass flashlight attached for shooting in broad daylight again. Retarded.

[quote=breadWhy would anybody want a gun that won't reach it's full potential.[/quote]

I like accurate guns too but sometimes accuracy isn't the only/best factor in the equation. For a short/mid-range semi-auto AR, reliability might be the most important function so a "match" chamber might not be your huckleberry......

Drum roll please...... "I don't know, to be clear." and THAT is one promise he's kept!!!

That's a really profound response (well. not really) to a really stupid & dumb question by the OP of this thread.

Related question: anyone put a Shaw barrel on their AR? I get lots of emails from Shaw pushing their AR barrels. Curious as to the quality.
