I would look at an ultralite barrel to begin with.  I prefer 1:8 twist or tighter for heavy bullets.  Look at the lightweight build section for ideas.  Lightweight will be a winner for the ladies.

posted this in a different part on the forum maybe get some more help here. wife wants to build a 5.56 with so many barrel lengths and twist rates which do yall recommend for a paper puncher / coyote hunting rifle. i built a 6.8 last year and had lots of fun an saved a ton of cash in the process so wifey wants a turn at it. thanks in advance

distance will be hard to say since it will probably be used for hunting to, i dont see her shooting out to 200yds much at all if any she will probably shoot paper at 100. dont want to open a big can of worms but what brand yall like. im kinda partial to ARP barrels since thats whats on my 6.8 and it preforms EXACTLY like "H" promised me it would problem is he doesnt have any in stock right now
