Along with weight,budget may be a factor,also.

Given a 1x to 4x scope,IMO,a barrel that may fit into a balanced package for you is the Daniel Defense "S2W".Its made to some Navy spec.

Its hammer forged,18 in,and chrome lined.The contour is interesting.S2W stands for strength to weight.

Instead of the typical stepped cylindrical profile,its a contoured taper like a typical sporting rifle barrel.

Its lighter than an H-bar,without being the skinny M-4

Price about $270 or so,last time I looked.

Mine is + or - 1 MOA with 77 gr handloads.Not a bragger,but it will whack prairie dogs as far as you can use a 1x to 4x scope on them.

For ball park the same price,or a little more,look at what White Oak offers,at least to compare.They are not chrome lined.

If you want to blaze rapid fire,the chrome makes sense.

Squeezing one round at a time for accuracy,chrome is not so necessary.

Look at Yankee Hill for a forend.There are others,of course.YHM has a strong attachment and moderate price.They make one that only has a little bit of rail on it.Its customizable .
The Rock River NM 2 stage trigger is not a bad choice.

Look at the Rock River ring mounts.I like them,reasonable price.
