I have 2 choices I'm considering for barrels for an upcoming build. I'm looking @ the Criterion and Krieger 18.5" barrels. The Krieger in med weight. The rifle will mainly be used with a suppressor. I eventually will install in a Sage and use an Eotech. So I guess my question is; will the more than double price of the Krieger be worth the extra $ over the Criterion. I know Criterion is made by Krieger but to what standard. Are they anywhere the quality of the Krieger?
Thanks in advance.

Consider the 18.0" (standard or medium heavy) from Smith Enterprise.
They have 4 grooves and a 1:10 ROT that are ideal for suppressor use.
Cryo and M80HT pretty much negate the need for chrome lined barrels.

My favorite is the medium heavy in a SAGE with an EOTech ~ suppressed.
