This 16-inch barrel is chambered in .223 Wylde, allowing safe and accurate use of both .223 Remington and 5.56 NATO ammunition. Constructed from 416-R stainless steel, it features 5R button rifling and a 1:8 twist rate, ideal for stabilizing a wide range of bullet weights. The flame fluted exterior reduces weight and improves heat dissipation while giving the barrel a bold, aggressive look.
It uses a mid-length gas system for smoother recoil and improved reliability and includes a Nickel Teflon-coated M4 barrel extension for enhanced corrosion resistance and reliable feeding. The exterior is treated with a QPQ nitride finish for long-term durability and corrosion protection.
