Caliber is most important as is the useage.
Sage faggot.

What is the best barrel
length/bullet combo?
>>
>>35099693
depends on the bullet it shoots.
>>
>>35099693
20" 1:12
>>
16" for 7.62x39
>>
>>35099693
Assault rifle means it has full auto. (Not the same as California's poorly defined assault weapon) so it would be 5.56 and most probably 92gn. So 18" 1/9 twist with a rifle length gas port.

>92gn
What the fuck are you talking about
>>
>>35100005
92gn?

10.5" is bretty gud
>>
>>35099693
For 5.56 NATO 11"-14" seems to be the sweet spot. Longer and you run into rapidly diminishing returns on the weight investment and shorter you tend to have issues due to dwell time.
>>
>>35099693
14"
>>
>>35100032
Shit i was thinking of m193 ammo, so 55gn still 1/9 twist
>>
>>35100062

>>35099965
>not 1:14 original tumbly bullet maker
>>
>>35099693
14"~16"
>>
>>35100550
His a big mag??
>>
>>35100062
>that mag
Does that thing actually feed worth a fuck? I bought a couple 40 rd mags for my AR but haven't had a chance to test them out yet.
>>
>>35100570
Eh, just shoot 72gr
>>
>>35099693
14-16"
10" I find the sexiest
>>
That dude that bodied 3 home invaders in Oklahoma a few months ago had a 20" AR.

How are those mags, any issues ?
>>
>>35100098
Past 20 inches you start to get diminishing results. Anything from 10.5 to 20 inches is good depending on what you're using it for and anything outside that range is just stupid.
>>
>>35101698
i'd REALLY like to test that theory. i'm almost certain if you had an extended gas tube setup, you'd see better performance out of a 24in barrel. i think if you decreased the dwell time, you'd get a hair better performance. the only barrel i've found online for an extended setup is for a 26in barrel.
>>
>>35100550
for you

>>35101489
I've heard better things than I have for beta mags

Anything below 20 is for faggots or Cavalry.
