    This certainly has me curious... Mine arrives Monday

      How do you think this will work as a wolf ammo beater gun? Something to keep in the farm truck to plink with?

        Should be a great match with wolf steel case.

          Mine arrived today... Have not shot it yet but learned the hard way that it is 9/16 threads at the muzzle. I don't have any muzzle devices to fit but plan to test it prior to ordering a brake or thread protector.
          Overall in great shape... Looking forward to see how it groups.
          *weight is 27oz FYI

            Which is identical to the AA lightweight 16" barrel.

              It was probably just my bad luck.

                I fired a few rounds through mine but it was quite gusty... Looked like it has potential but the ELD was a 1.5" spread... (Not encouraged by the ELD thus far!)

                  I have one coming. Can anyone tell me what size gas block it takes? I'd assume .930, but figured I'd ask before ordering stuff.
                  Thanks.

                        I just decided to sell mine because I went with an 18" for this build

                          So are these barrels like playing the lotto ? If I wanted a "good " barrel I have to call them and request one and maybe pay extra ? I'll stick with my Anderson 5.56 as my truck gun/plinking gun. My Grendel is my sub moa bug shooter gun .

                            The one I got could have been used by correcting faults with a file and a die. I opted to return it instead. All I had to do was print out a return shipping label and leave it out for USPS to pick it up.

                              Think these can be cut back to 14.5" and re-threaded to 5/8x24?

                                I have a 14.5" version of this barrel that I ordered from Red X. It is very overgassed, so I purchased the RCA adjustable gas key to see if that helps mitigate the almost violent recoil.
