I have a lt.wt.  M1S 1/9 5.56 chambered bbl. non lined.
Shoots 2 to 3in. groups on a good day with BHBB 55gr.(almost doubles with Wolf) at 100yds off a bench with open sights. (with optics probably better)
Just a hair off what I can do with 20in. pencil bbls with open sights.
The last 3gun I shot my main rifle broke on the first stage,I had the lt.wt. in the trunk so I used it to clean the rest of the stages.
I like the little gun real easy to hold off hand after tired from running back & forth.
IMHO real good bbl. for the money.($130 when I bought it)
FWIW my main gun has a M1S stainless fluted 16in. I am also happy with.

ERShaw/M1S non-lined 14.5" M4 profile/Perm Phantom owner here.

I have no idea what kind of groups it's capable of (after all, it's a Non-FF, lightweight, 14.5" carbine barrel), but I can say that with 62Gr. Wolf, it is (and I guess I am, by default) capable of ringing a 2/3 man-sized steel silouette at 300 yards.  With the same ammo, it's capable of perfect CNS shots at <50 yards as well.

Minute-of-dirtbag is good enough for me out of that particular barrel.

From a reliability standpoint, I've found it will shoot absolutely anything (including rusty Wolf) as long as the chamber is cleaned every thousand rounds or so.
