16" .223 Wylde BA Hanson Stainless Steel Midlength
Anyone own one or have first hand experience with one? I saw a youtube review of a premium 556 barrel but not the Wylde chambering. Looking at the one that is 27oz, with the .750 gas block. |

I have that exact barrel and love it. It's accurate and worth the money I only wished that it was coated stainless like the Larue barrels and not bead blasted but it's still better then it being all shiny. Nothing really more to say about it unless you have a specific question.

| I run the BA Hanson 16" but in the .625 on my lightweight rifle. It groups fairly well. Is under 2" with 69gr smk. Once in a while it will place a group under a inch. It shoots about 3" with bulk 55gr. For a lightweight barrel I am very satisfied. My 17.7 BA Hanson barrel shoots about 2" with bulk and 1" with the same 69gr loads. Your .750 barrel results should be closer to the 17.7. Just have to figure out what ammo it likes. |

That's exactly what I was looking for! Looks great in the MI handgaurd, I'm going to be running that same setup. Have you ever grouped it? |

. I've only had time to take her out once since I finished the build a week or so ago and that was to an indoor range to sight it in where I was standing and didn't know the exact distance, in those conditions I couldn't have been happier with the groupings I did get tho I didn't measure anything. Hoping to hit an outdoor range soon for a real test run. |
