Engineered for precision and durability, the Green Mountain .223 Wylde AR-15 Barrel delivers reliable performance for serious shooters building or upgrading their rifle. This 18-inch M4-profile barrel combines a versatile .223 Wylde chamber with a fast 1:8 twist rate, allowing you to accurately engage targets with a wide range of bullet weights while maintaining excellent velocity and stability.
Key Features and Benefits
- Precision Chambering: The .223 Wylde chamber offers the best of both .223 Remington and 5.56 NATO worlds, providing tight tolerances for superior accuracy without compromising reliability or safety.
- Optimized Twist Rate: A 1:8 twist stabilizes heavier projectiles up to 77 grains, making it ideal for long-range plinking, competition, or varmint hunting.
- Durable Construction: Machined from 416 stainless steel with a black passivated finish, this barrel resists corrosion and maintains a low-profile matte appearance that reduces glare during field use.
- M4 Profile Design: The government-style M4 contour balances weight and rigidity, providing a solid platform for optics and accessories while keeping overall rifle weight manageable.
- Rifle-Length Gas System: Paired with a 0.75-inch gas block journal, the rifle-length gas system ensures smooth, consistent cycling and reduced recoil for faster follow-up shots.
