Chrome lined: better corrosion resistance, longer life
Non Chrome lined: slightly better accuracy potential (on average). |

When in doubt, go with chrome.

$243 for their chrome lined barrel isn't bad, but I think you can find a better chrome lined barrel out there for the same price range or a good bit cheaper. Just my opinion.
edit: Like this one |

well the other one I've been debating on is the YHM fluted one. Their's come chrome lined for $190. The Del-Ton comes with all the other stuff I need though like the barrel nut and gas tube and everything. So I think it was worth it to pay a little more and get everything at once.
That Daniel Deffense is nice at a really good price too though. Hmmmmmm..... |

YHM isn't bad, and they're often a good bang for the buck, but the daniel defense is very likely a better steel, and about $20 cheaper. That difference will pay for your barrel nut and gas tube. The del-ton, are you going to keep the standard sight and handguards, or possibly upgrade in the future? |

I already have a quad rail ready to be put on when i get the barrel. I was just going to order it with the regular ones so I could have an extra set for whatever reason
I was going to order it with the two rail gas block as well since I have my own front sight already. And I don't want a flash hider on it as I know which one I want to get for that. |

+1 for the Daniel Defense barrels. I just bought one a couple weeks ago. The price was right and it had the options that I wanted. I got the chrome lined barrel, with the front site base and front site post already installed, with the handguard cap and barrel nut. It was only $225 if I remember correctly. I couldn't be happier with my purchase.
