Need a barrel to finish up a build . Just installed a modern series 556 16" barrel into a old fun and no data or results on how it shoots.

But need a barrel to finish up a build I've been sitting on and looking at a few different BA barrels. As with the sakes it's very tempting.

So talk me into one or a different recommendation.

Looking at these 16" BA barrels
- SPR barrel 223 wlyde
- Hanson 556 nitrided 4150
- Hanson 223 wlyde 416 stainless

Haven't had any of them and want some accuracy but not lw nor a heavy bull profile , something in between..and can't decide on wlyde or 556 chamber

I have a 16" Hanson Stainless and love it.  Thing is very accurate with 60gr V-max and 69 smk's.   Shoots smaller bulk 55gr stuff well, but really shines with handloads for me.
