In lightweight profile?

I want a high quality 7.5" 556 barrel in lightweight profile everything I'm finding looks like a damn cannon barrel

Price isn't bad either. It says light weight Gov.

I assuming you wanted something that isn't HBAR?

They have a light weight 10.5" iirc

Edited because my spell check didn't like FAXON

Try the FAXON barrel.
I bought one in 300blackout and they are great.

I hate spell check.

For the price vs quality FAXON is a great choice and their customer service is great.
Just worked with them last week.

I have a Ballsitic Advantage 7.5" and it's surprisingly accurate (have shot from 50-70 yrds repeatedly).

Modern series 7.5"   $130

My 7.5"

I got a 7.5 chrome lined from Green Mountain and it has been excellent. Probably only about 500 rounds through it so far. $125.00 and comes with a gas tube. It is the regular profile though.
