I am working on a SPRish/ varmint/ bench gun ( if that makes sense). It will see a little hunting and target shooting for fun. I would like it to be accurate and stainless steel but not cost $500. I was looking at DPMS bull barrels in 16 and 20 inch for around $160-$170. I also looked at a Wilson 18" bull barrel for around $200. Then there is WOA I have heard great things about them. But they are about $100 more. Are they worth it and will I notice the difference? If I were to go with the WOA would the SPR or varmint barrel be the better choice. I was looking at there 18 inch barrels. Thanks

I only use BHW poly barrels for my own AR wildcat builds as well as standard calibers...

The .223/5.56mm P3 SS 416R  barrels thay make are high quality very accurate and cost
effective (around $265 depending on length and profile).

Give them a try:  http://www.blackholeweaponry.com/catalog/

I am building an AR for 3 gun competition - I am going with the ARStoner 20" SS, Fluted witn 1/8 twist from Midway USA.  Currently on backorder, but sells for $252.00

I like the look of a BHW with the spiral fluting. Looks like a nice product.

Are ARStoner barrels the Brownells brand? I was told they are made by Wilson and ER Shaw.
