Ballistic Advantage Premium Series 6.5 Creedmoor AR-308 Fluted Barrel - Rifle Length - 20" - BABL65CR02PL

Ballistic Advantage Premium Series 6.5 Creedmoor AR-308 Fluted Barrel – Rifle Length – 20″

The Ballistic Advantage Premium Series 20″ 6.5 Creedmoor Fluted Barrel is designed for shooters who want true long-range performance from their AR-308/DPMS-pattern platform. Machined from hardened 416R stainless steel with a bead-blasted finish, this barrel is proof-fired and MPI tested to ensure premium quality and consistency. The aggressive fluting helps reduce weight while maintaining the rigidity needed for repeatable accuracy in extended strings.

Chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor, it’s an excellent choice for builders who want flatter ballistics and strong energy retention while using many standard .308-pattern components. A rifle-length gas system, 1:8 twist, and 5/8×24 threads make it a solid foundation for precision AR-308 builds.

Important: This barrel uses a 1.03″ gas block seat and requires .875″ low-profile gas blocks only.
