    Are you asking diameter or distance from the BF?

    Courtesy Maryland AR15 Site:

    Barrel Length (in) Barrel Diameter (in) Distance from Muzzle (in) Min Port Size (in) Max Port Size (in)
    11.5 .625 3.850 .081 .089
    11.5 .750 3.850 .086 .094
    14.5 .625 8.375 .063 .078
    14.5 .750 8.375 .070 .086
    16 .625 8.375 .063 .078
    16 .750 8.375 .070 .086
    20 .625 6.875 .086 .093
    20 .750 6.875 .093 .096
    24 .825 N/A .089 .089


    This does not include mid-lengths which I think place the port 2" closer to the muzle. Also, I'm not sure if the data for the 14.5" and 16" is accurate since I believe port locations from the BF are identical, with the 16.0" having an additional 1.5" of dwell. This data lists them the same distance from the muzzle which I believe is an error.
