.308 AR10 Barrel - 13.5" - 5/8x24 - 1:10 Twist - Heavy - Mid Length
Purpose: The barrel is one of the most critical components of a rifle. Its primary purpose is to contain the high-pressure gases produced when the cartridge is fired and direct that energy to propel the bullet forward at high velocity. Inside the barrel, the rifling (spiral grooves) spins the bullet, stabilizing it in flight for improved accuracy and range. The barrel’s length, material, twist rate, and profile also significantly influence the rifle’s overall performance, recoil, maneuverability, and effective velocity.
Features: This is a 13.5-inch .308/AR-10 barrel with a mid-length gas system, ideal for pistol or short-barreled rifle builds. It features 4150 CMV (Chrome Moly Vanadium) steel construction with a Black Nitride finish for excellent corrosion resistance, wear protection, and durability. Key specs include a 1:10 twist rate (effective for stabilizing common .308 bullet weights), mid-length gas system, and 5/8x24 muzzle threading. It's DPMS-pattern compatible and made in the USA.
