Q

Any recommended gas block and gas tube for this barrel?

Expert Answer
A
Answered by Ethan, Gear Expert, from IL, United States, on January 16, 2023

The Ballistic Advantage Premium .223 Wylde Barrel uses a 0.750" gas journal. I would recommend using the Ballistic Advantage Lo Pro Gas Block, linked below. However, any 0.750" gas block would fit including adjustable gas blocks. The 16" barrels will work with any mid-length gas tube. The 18" barrel will work with any rifle-length gas tube.

The Ballistic Advantage Premium .223 Wylde Barrel is not dimpled for a gas block. Each barrel is machined from 416 Stainless Steel with a QPQ finish. The Premium Black Series Barrels feature a Nickel Boron Coated Extended M4 Feed Ramp Extension.
