I'm looking at a spr barrel for plinking and hunting aplications, I don't want to go with a full "varmint" barrl due to weight.  I'm looking at the rainiers arms match 18 inch spr or the woa 18 inch match barrel both with rifle length gas system.  I hear a lot of good things about the woa, but not much about the rainiers.  Anything else in the sub-$300 price range.Which would you go with and why?

Rainier and WOA make nice stuff, don't think you could go wrong there.  Rainier even has a 90 day no questions asked return policy on their barrels.

Another option, sub $300 might be BHW.  $247.
