I'm wanting to send a 16" WOA Predator barrel https://www.whiteoakarmament.com/223...ld-875-16.html to ADCO to have them cut it down to 14.5 and pin on a Surefire Warcomp. I'm wanting to build a somewhat lightweight pinned 16" build for HD and distance shooting up to 300 yards sometimes. Kinda a jack of all traits in a minimal way. I know WOA makes some nice barrels so I saw this Predator barrel and plan to have them also do their SDM fluting. https://www.whiteoakarmament.com/sdm...as-system.html
The only thing I don't understand about their barrels is why they use a .875 gas block and I was wondering how this would limit my rail choices. Right now I'm pretty set on getting a Geissele Super Modular MK4.
Update: So I just got off the phone with WOA about seeing if they offer this barrel in 14.5 or if they would cut it. I was told NO they do/will not and also that they do not recommend cutting it down as if I did it would be "greatly under gassed" and they couldn't guarantee cycling. Should I abandon the WOA Predator 14.5 idea or should I go forward and see if ADCO can also open up the port size if needed?
Other option is eliminate all the headache and get a Match Faxon Gunner .223 Wylde in 14.5 and just pin on the Warcomp.
