I would go with Adjustable Gas Block first before replacing barrel if that barrel is accurate. Much more control than the Gem Tech selectable carrier

I would get an adjustable gas block too. Technically it is better to have too big a hole for gas than too small. You can easily make the hole smaller with an adjustable gas block. An adjustable carrier isn't nearly as effective in my mind since the gas is still getting to the carrier key.

I have a BA Hanson 10.3" barrel in one of my builds. Not many rounds through it yet but flawless function with or without a Surefire can. I'm just running an H2 with a standard carbine spring. I do have a gas buster in it. Zero gas to the face and the rifle is smooth. It behaves a lot like my ADCO chopped 10.3's and they have a .072 gas port so I'm assuming that's what BA is using.

I'm running the Hanson 8.3" 300BLK barrel suppressed with a Sandman Ti. It hasn't been real accurate for me yet, including with Barnes 110s, but I'm going to keep tinkering.

Interesting. All of their barrels have the 1 MOA guarantee. |

Yes, but they are, in my opinion, very unhelpful at recommending *which* ammo will produce that 1MOA. It's their freaking barrel, so they should know. |

+1 for adjustable gas block. What I'm doing to my BCM 11.5 as I got tired of going up in buffer weights and extra strong springs. Next up was the adj carriers, but they don't seem to be nearly as effective as a gas block.
