Product Info for Helix 6 Precision Carbon Fiber Barrel for 223 Wylde AR Rifle

Install this Helix 6 Precision Carbon Fiber Barrel for 223 Wylde AR Rifle to upgrade your rifle's performance at the range, on the hunting grounds or both. Helix 6 Precision designed these Rifle Barrels with increased accuracy thanks to their proprietary carbon wrap process, which also provides increased thermal dissipation that cools your firearm off quickly for quicker follow-up shots on target. The Helix 6 Precision 223 Wylde Rifle Barrel features harmonic dampening, as well, for even better accuracy than other models. These barrels are roughly 50% lighter than an equivalent steel barrel of equal contour, and the materials used in their construction will last several years. Plus, these barrels are crafted with stainless 416R cores which provide a uniform bore for match-grade accuracy. Add a Helix 6 Precision Lightweight Carbon Fiber Barrel for 223 Wylde Rifle for a high-performance upgrade that will deliver some serious fun at the range or in the field.image
