Choosing a barrel..

[Barrett]

Hello all,

So Mike D. was kind enough to sell me his Genesis upper receiver for my build. Now I am trying to figure out the barrel portion of the build. I found a company named Anderson manufacturing that has some reasonable priced barrels with good reviews. Does anybody have any experience with these barrels or suggestions for a barrel (in stock)?

Thanks,

Barrett

That has to be a record! Glad you guys had a minds think alike moment! Hmm dont own an anderson barrel... what specks are you looking for ?

Barrett glad to hear you got that upper. Man your timing could not have been better!

Thanks fellas.

I am thinking I might go with an 18" 1:10 twist. Nothing too fancy needed. It is gonna be a target rifle mostly.. Although I would mind going to Montana....

Gotta link to that barrel?

Its a rule around here you came in under the wire by chance ?

Since montana hasent been around lately that might be two rules you need to research.  

Happy hunting! Glad we can help spend your $

It shouldn't be greyed out now as you are over the 5 minimum post count. You do have to have 5 posts before you can list a for sale item. If you still can't post something just holler at one of the mods. The mods are very accommodating, especially when ya talk dirty to them.

Barrett, I bought one of Anderson's 16" barrels for my Matrix 308 build. Fit and finish were great and so far function has been good too. I can't tell you what kind of accuracy it's delivering because the only shooting I've done is function testing and break in. I haven't had a chance to put it on paper yet, been busy with the holidays and such and now the damn wind is starting to blow here and will probably continue through spring like it usually does.
