BHW 20" Stnd. profile barrel in .260, 9" twist, .750 gas block, straight flutes in front of block, black finish

37 rds thru it, bore feels good and cleaned up easily. I run anything but federal factory thru it for break in and gas block adjustment.

I'm looking to sell it to fund a bolt gun project, I decided I want a bolt gun 6.5 more than a gas gun

$300 shipped CONUS, USPSMO preferred. (Looks like this barrel would be $430 plus shipping from BHW)


 
Did you shot any groups? What is it installed on ? Did I miss , stainless or cm.?

I fired two types of federal factory ammo in 3 trips out for break in and gas block adjustment. No handloads. Cleaned it with bore tech and nylon brush in between each to gauge any fouling. Bore felt smooth and didn't collect much copper. I had trouble between each session with the set screw on the adj gas block moving around so I was working to get that right more than anything. Neither of the two factory loads I tried impressed me accuracy wise, so If I end up keeping it I'll try a starting load 123 gr bullets first.

Hand loads and an adjustable gas block are musts IMO to build an upper with this barrel.

It's installed on a dpms upper receiver, and it's a stainless barrel with the BHW black finish.
