Budget 223 barrel

My neighbor wanted an AR built for coyote on a shoestring budget..We found a BCA 16" 5.56 1:9 nitride barrel with M4 profile on clearance for $59 from primary arms and gave it a shot..Appears it's going to be happy with the 55 NBT varmint and Benchmark. I guess it's hit or miss, I have two BCA's, an 18" 5.56 and an 18" Grendel. The Grendel is 1/4 MOA with several bullets, but the 5.56 is 1.25" at its best so far. When it had the heavy-creepy Mil-Spec trigger it was about 1 MOA. Replaced it with an ALG-ACT trigger with purple springs installed brought it down to .335"

Wow, can't ask for much more than that at any price!

Sweet! That worked out well.
