Hey fellas, I'm getting into the m1a game and had a question on
Barrels. One that I am looking at has a 22". Stainless barrel. As far
As accuracy is concerned is stainless the best

way to go? If not
What are other options/concerns?

A stainless barrel well be more accurate than a chrome lined steel barrel. Depending on how well you shoot you may see little difference.

Stainless steel or chrome-moly steel will/can both be equally good. What counts is who made the rifling.
A chrome LINED barrel is great for carrying through the swamps for days and days. It will not be the most accurate barrel that is available.

A stainless barrel does not make it more accurate tha a chromlined barrel.I had 7.62build my TRW kit for me with thier forged rec.That rifle out shoots my loaded stainless rifle!!The TRW barrel is 48 yrs old!.Stainless barrels can be but I would not say will be more accurate.You re right it depends on how well you can shoot. to see the difference.
