BSF Barrels AR-15 223 Wylde 16" 1:8 Twist Barrel

A 16" AR-15 barrel from BSF with a 1:8 twist. Sixteen inches is the shortest length a rifle can wear without stepping into NFA territory, which is why so much of the AR world settles there. A 1:8 rate is the general purpose middle ground for a .22 bore - fast enough for the heavier match bullets, slow enough that light varmint loads stay together.

The 223 Wylde chamber is cut to accept both 223 Remington and 5.56 NATO ammunition. Gas system length, barrel profile and muzzle thread are not listed for this barrel, so confirm the gas port location against your upper before ordering.
