Well I got in the Wolf springs and did a little torture test. 4 full 30rnd mags in about 90 seconds, mag 5 second round, fte. I am now sure it's the barrel. Its not chrome linned, and has a 223 chamber.
I am going to replace the barrel, but I'm also looking for a little advice. I know I want a 5.56 chamber, and chrome linning. I found Bushmaster, CMMG, and ADCO. The CMMG barrel is a DPMS, the ADCO is Rock River all chrome linned. I also e-mailed MSTN to see what Wes had, and inquire about the LMT bolt. Any one know of any other barrels that might be a good deal?
Also any thoughts on 14.5" with a permanent Flash suppresor, compared to a 16" barrel? It is not used for long ranges. Just thought I'd see if anyone had any good idea's before I drop the cash. Thanks Gene
