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!

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.

I have two barrels from them. No problems.

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.

[mosin46]

yea i'm thinking that but still up in the air. i am not a huge 5.56 fan but $,availability,ammo and rifles/parts around are + issues. i am a big 308 fan also.

I only have 1 BA barrel, like an idiot I butchered my roll pin when trying to pin the gas block. Called to see if I cluld buy a new one as they were not listed on their website. They just mailed me a new one.

I now own a set of roll pin starter punches.
