[QUOTE="Turpentine21, post: 2937929, member: 124909"] You won't regret it. I like 20" barrels for velocity and they are more quiet but 18 and 16 work good. If you go with a 20" barrel go with a 9 twist. Bill Alexander did his homework on this one and I read that years ago from his tests on the cartridge. 8 twist in a 20" barrel can be finicky. Mine sure was. Mine and the one I built for my brother have fluted 20" 1 in 9" AA barrels and bolts. They shoot way better than an AR should. His 18" mid length makes for a nice light rifle that will shoot. I built one of those for a client with Aero accessories last year. [/QUOTE]
