Description:

Many have asked us to build a barrel with the same workmanship as our UltraMatch™ barrels while keeping it more affordable. Our Match™ barrels are the answer. We start off using a Wilson blank in 1:8 twist, machine it to a highest quality and matched with our limited-life time warranty, you have a barrel that is the best value, hands down, in the industry. We are so confident in our Match™ barrels that we will offer a 100% money back guarantee within 90 days of purchase. If you aren’t completely satisfied with the barrel for any reason, return it for a full refund, no questions asked.

These are similar to the White Oak Armament Barrels which are made with Wilson blanks but offer a 1:8 twist to accommodate to a wide range of bullet weights. Guaranteed to shoot sub-MOA with match grade ammo.

**This will be a limited run, as barrel blanks from Wilson are experiencing extremely long weight times. Get them while they last.

Features:

* Stainless Steel Match Grade Wilson Blank
* Length: 16″
* Twist: 1:8
* Thread Pitch: 1⁄2 X 28
* .750 Gas Block Seat
* .223 Wylde Chamber
* Midlength Gas System
* M4 Feed Ramps
* Proprietary Contour
* Bead Blasted Finish


FOR CLARIFICATION:

Rainier Select - subMOA Guarantee
Rainier Match - Same Maching process & Contour as UltraMatch Series, Different Barrel Blank - subMOA Guarantee
Rainier UltraMatch - Our top of the line Barrel offering - subMOA Guarantee

Do you want to shoot Quarters, Nickels or Dimes?

Ok, any plans on offering this in 14.5 mid? I just decided on the 14.5 select barrel for my build but really wanted the wylde chamber.

Due to limited barrel blanks, I don't think we'll offer a 14.5". We will probably do a 18" SPR model next.

We have enough blanks to run the 14.5" barrels. The profile will be the same as our Ultramatch series so it will be more of a medium weight barrel.

Just so Im reading it right, the select barrels are for quarters, match for nickels, and ultramatch for dimes? also, to order the 14.5, just put in the notes that we want it that length? been looking for some quality barrels at a good price and these seem to be them!

Any guesstimate on finished weight? And to confirm, this is w/o gasblock/fixed FSB, correct?

Currently our barrels come stripped but in the future, we will be adding an LP gas block to the barrels. We'll get pictures and weights up as soon as possible.

Here is our Match SPR barrel.





14.5" barrels should be here in a week.

I know you have the WOA with ambi extensions but I'm really wanting a 1 in 8 twist with the Wylde, so any plans for Ambi extensions on these? Thanks

I'm interested in the 16" as well. Will those be back in stock? Or is that run over.

No ETA on the 16". We're working hard on getting more barrel blanks ordered. Use the "Notify Me" feature on our website and we'll shoot you an e-mail letting you know when they get back in stock.

No specific plans for ambi extensions, but we can certainly explore that option.

Without a doubt. The .223 Wylde chamber was designed to shoot heavier match ammo.
