Lead & Steel AR-15 5.56mm Threaded AR Barrel
Machined from a GM 4150 CMV blank, this Lead & Steel 4150 nitride 5.56mm barrel is dimpled, fully stress-relieved and 11" target crowned, with a gas nitride finish. Barrels are ported conservatively.
Paired with a heavy buffer, you may experience stoppages with underpowered steel-cased ammo. To guarantee reliability with all ammo types, use a standard carbine buffer + spring and run the system with full-power M193/M855 before shooting steel. After an initial 30rd break-in, steel-cased ammo can be used without issue.
