Starting a build project
goal - accurate 5.56/223 barrel for varmits ( g-hogs ) and other targets beyond 200 yards

looking at about a $300 barrel , mainly looking at 18" but if I went any other size it would be 16"
what length gas system are most running with 18" ,

Out of the two I'd go with the Rainier Arms, very good barrel for the price, I'd snag one while they're in stock.
