AR Varmint barrel

Can anyone provide advice on a 24inch AR barrel? Douglas, or Bartlien

Can't speak for those barrels but I do have a Stag model 6h. It's a 24" heavy stainless with a 1/8 twist. Stag guarantees .5 moa and it has no problem doing it especially with 69 and 77 grain sierras.

either the Douglas or Bartlein will be fine. You may also want to look at Krieger. I went with a Krieger only because they had an AR15 heavy match barrel already cut and ready to install when I went shopping for mine.

Look at http://www.blackholeweaponry.com/ .They custom make their barrels with polygonal rifling- individually made to your specs: barrel length, weight, about a dozen or more different types of fluting and finishes, and a whole range of AR wildcat calibers. If you join their forum first before ordering a barrel you'll get a 10% discount. I actually joined after I had ordered my barrel and they refunded me the 10% discount. Also they offer special sales during the year, Shot Show, Black Friday and etc, where offer another 10% discount on their barrel prices.
