[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Barrel Length Pics

Posted: 4/28/2009 10:32:10 AM EDT

I am building my an AR-15, but unsure on barrel length. 20" bull barrel is sufficient for my use, but trying to find a length that will look right for this mostly benched gun, using either an A2 or Magpul PRS stock. If anyone has pics of rifles side by side without flash hiders, in various lengths, it would me decide which to get.

What do you want to use it for? 20" bulls are really heavy.

My rifles all have muzzle devices except my NRA Service Rifle, and it's got a HBAR profile not Bull barrel

Thanks for the pic. The rifle will be shot off a bench, at paper targets, at 100, 200, and rarely out to maybe as far as 600 yards. Might be used for prone, but no plans for that at this time. Will never be carried around in the field or for hunting. Top accuracy is the priority. I held a 20" bull, with a Harris bipod and PRS stock, and 22 oz scope. Yep, quite heavy, and shooting that while standing would be tough. But, as a bench gun, it is fine. - Phil
