ballistic advantage barrels

[mosin46]

looking at a build with one on it. have looked and asked all over,so trying here. what do people have in the way of direct knowledge or experience? i have heard everything from "MOA for sure and if not they correct it" to horrible machining and no CS. i am not asking what you think i should put on a gun or what is a better barrel. i know better barrels. i am asking specifically about experience with BA barrels. the build is mostly aero and gissele parts and a linked barrel add for $160,so at least rather suspect.

I’ve got 2 or 3 BA barrels have been very happy with all of them. Can’t speak to their CS as I’ve never had an issue to have to call them about!

Gissele?

Same. Believe mine is 3-4. 1 or 2 include Delta assembly and fsb.

I got one of their 16" non threaded Modern series barrells , SKU:BABL556031MN-BAPA100013, purchased in 2017 for a NY compliant upper. No issues or blemishes with the barrel (I didn't gauge it) and it installed easily. It's been fed XM193 and Wally World .223 and zeroed without issue. I didn't measure the groups on it, but they were acceptable to me, considering the ammo used. YMMV. I picked because it was available without threads and could be order with a pinned lo pro gas block.

I have a 9.5 inch Hanson 300BO barrel that has performed very well without any issues.

1 BA 11.3 barrel on latest sbr build, very nice performance thus far though early in our relationship. Everything fit together nice and tight. I’d purchase again in a heartbeat.

I have used iver 10 BA barrels of all different calibers and lengths. No issues with any of them at all. They have all functioned great and have been a solid MOA barrel with match grade ammo.

As for the CS, no isses at all with them. I have had a few conversations with them and they told me stories about how people use a 4 MOA Aimpoint and can't get MOA out of there barrel..... and other stuff they hear.

I know that Eurodriver shot his 12.5 BA upper i built for him at 620 yards with 19 of 20 hits on a steel target.

thanks very much all. i may try and make a move on the build. i am stuck between another 5.56 or an AR10. have big commit with 5.56 and AR10 prices for mid range guns are high IMHO.

Your AR10 ammo costs should be factored in. But if you have a good 5.56, I'd build or buy the AR10 just because it is such a different animal.
