[QUOTE="rdsii64, post: 564995, member: 13978"] I will be the one weirdo in the group. A lot of these comments about not much difference between 16 and 20 inch barrels and 24 inches just not needed is assuming you are chambering your rifle in 223 and even then I somewhat disagree. With that said, the AR15 can be an excellent platform at any range if you define its purpose and chose the correct caliber and components before you start spending money. With todays components, it's not hard at all to build a consistent autoloading rifle that can be a bolt guns equal in terms of accuracy . so before you can decide on proper barrel length you have to define the rifles purpose and the round which you intend to use. I chose a 20" 8 twist barrel for my rig. It works very well for my needs [/QUOTE]
