I was considering to cut down my 16in 5.45x 39 to 12.5. or buy a barrel. I was told that 5.45 x 39 SBR do not function well and terribly inaccurate. does any one have one. Thanks

While I can't answer in relation to an AR platform I can tell you that a 12.5" 5.45x39 out of an AK platform is just as accurate as a 16" gun in my limited experience. I had one built years ago and have had no issues with either function or accuracy.
Back when 5.45 was dirt cheap I could see the interest, but with prices the way they are now I don't see much reason for a 5.45 AR.
Ballistic Advantage 10.5" barrel... zeroed at 50 yds can hold about a 2" group using Wolf. Should probably break out some better ammo 1 day just to see...
Long range, effective accuracy from a pistol. 6.5 Grendel

i have an older spike tactical 16in upper which i was planing to cut. I have a spare barrel that i can always can go back to 16
If I remember correctly true 5.45 barrels under 16 inches have a different twist rate
