Not seeing too many to choose from out there. Currently planning towards the Lilja 6.5-8 11.5. Anyone here have one that can vouch for it? I am running a TBAC Ultra 7, so 11.5 is the shortest I can go. I guess I could do 12", but really trying to keep it as short as possible. It's going to be a night vision gun mainly, so I don't expect 600 yard shots. Any suggestions or recommendations are welcomed. TIA

Short barrels with Grendel
Hello Horde:
Just thought I would let you guys know about a test we did recently on Short Barrels. We tested:
7.5 Bartlien at 100 Yards. Groups averaged 1.5 Inches 2000 FPS 123 Match King
8.5 Bartlien at 100 Yards. Groups Averaged 1.4 Inches 2100 FPS 123 Match King
10.5 Bartlien at 100 Yards. Groups averaged .9 Inches 2200 FPS 123 Match King
12.5 Lilja Blank Chambered by PF at 100 Yards. Groups .75 2300 FPS 123 Match King
14.5 Lilja Blank Chambered by PF at 100 Yards. Groups .5 2350 FPS 123 Match King
14.5 Krieger at 100 Yards. Groups averaged .38 2375 FPS 123 MatchKing
We have most of these available for shipment with 2 weeks. They are chambered - Just need Muzzle Threaded.
We also have 7.5, 8.5, 9.5, 10.5, 12.5 in Criterion although we have not tested accuracy extensively. 12.5 we tested shot under 1 moa.
None are 11.5 but they might be able to make you one.

11.5" Lilja are the only ones I'm aware of currently that are available, and they ship same day usually. Scary fast shipping actually.
SBR barrels combined with the TBAC Ultra 5 .30 cal in the AR15 is really an unparalleled when looking at the ultimate hunting package for the compact AR15, especially when fed the 129gr Nosler ABLR.NRA Basic, Pistol, Rifle, Shotgun, RSO

I know it is a half inch longer than you are wanting, but the closed 12 inch Faxon group buy looks like it will have a few extra barrels to accommodate the first several on the open group buy. Cant beat that price and the 16 inch barrels have got plenty of good results from that group buy you should be confident the 12 inch barrel will perform as needed.Last edited by explorecaves; 04-15-2017, 05:50 PM.
