The 20" BM Nat'l Match barrel is chrome lined, 1/9" twist. I used to think that the 1/9" was the way to go since it would stabalize the 55gr. M-193 and the 62gr M-855 well, and is very well suited for using the 69gr. BTHP Match bullets. But the future of the 5.56mm seems to indicate the use of heavier bullets like the 77gr OTM's. Some 1/9" barrels will stabalize the heavier bullets, some won't. And in any case, accuracy is generally less than outstanding with heavier bullets in the 1/9" barrels that will stabilize them.
Let's assume for a moment that you decided that you wanted to shoot in High Power competition and you wanted a heavy match barrel to do so. There are a lot better choices out there for heavy competition barrels than the chrome lined Bushmaster Heavy Nat'l Match. You'd be better off choosing a dedicated match barrel from one of the top barrel makers if competition is your goal.
As one who owns one of the BM Nat'l Match barrels on an A2 AR, I'd reccommend a Gov't Profile in the 1/7" twist instead. You'll be able to shoot anything from the 55gr. bullet through the 77gr and all with acceptable accuracy.
The BM Nat'l Match barrel is sort of a "tweener". It's between a Gov't. profile A2 and a real competition heavy match barrel. Slightly more accurate than the Gov't. barrel, but short of a competition barrel's accuracy. Why carry the extra weight if it's really not doing you that much good?
As always, just MHO, YMMV.
