I guess I need to decide on length first. I'm thinking 18" or 20". Its going to be for a DMR type build. It's probably going to end up wearing a 4x ACOG and spend most of its life taking shots from 100-500 yd.

I don't want anything too heavy, but it needs to have some accuracy. I am on a budget, so nothing extravagant.

This will be my first AR build so any help is appreciated. I'm from the AK building world where the barrel selection is pretty limited, and here I have a whole lot more choices.

Any suggestions? It doesn't necessarily have to be in-stock so long as it can be back ordered within a few weeks.

You really need to tell us exactly what your budget is.  You could get suggestions anywhere from 150 to 400 dollars.  It all depends on what your willing to spend.

Probably $300 max, but I'd rather keep it lower. If I can get ~1moa out of a cheaper barrel, I'd rather spend the money else where. Is that a reasonable budget? I'm still in the early stages of planning; all I have so far is the stripped lower so I can reallocate funds if I NEED a bigger barrel budget.

I have most of the rest of the build picked out.
