BSF BARRELS 20" CARBON FIBER 6.5 Grendel 1-8 TWIST Match AR15 AR-15 Barrel 416-5R

Absolutely stunning barrel! I was skeptical of carbon fiber until handling one and being amazed at the craftsmanship, quality and weight reduction. Two whole pounds over a similar size all steel barrel.

BSF builds their match-grade carbon fiber barrels with exceptional attention to detail that ensures you’ll achieve the best possible accuracy from your 6.5 Grendel AR15 rifle without getting a hernia lugging it around! BSF 6.5 Grendel barrels are turned from ordnance-grade 416R stainless steel, then given a roll-wrapped, tensioned, carbon fiber sleeve. The sleeve keeps weight down while providing excellent rigidity, coupled with enhanced cooling.

Why the sleeve method, rather than simple carbon fiber wrapping? The BSF folks believe wrapping traps heat and, as a result, is more likely to delaminate. Further, BSF uses a special carbon fiber that expands at the same rate as the 416R, and holes drilled into the jacket allow air to circulate around the barrel and vent heat quickly. Less heat distortion means far less risk of accuracy fade as your 6.5 Grendel chambered AR-15’s barrel heats up.

BSF offers their 6.5 Grendel carbon fiber match barrels with a 1-8" rifling twist effectively stabilizes that widest variety of popular bullet weights. And each barrel is thoroughly inspected by an experienced technician before leaving the BSR shop, ensuring you get a barrel that’s as accurate as it is good looking!

Vent holes in the carbon fiber sleeve lets that internal heat escape, expediting barrel cooling even more. In the end, BSF 6.5 Grendel Carbon Fiber AR-15 Barrels stay cool enough you can hold them with your bare hands, even after running 60 consecutive rounds down them!
