Tony, member, from TX, United States, asked on November 23, 2020

I've done some research on the difference in a 223 and a 556. Some 223 barrels are not recommended for a 556. Is a BSF good for both.

Can you recommend a gas block for the bsf ar15 wylde carbon sleeved 16.5" barrel? Size,etc

Expert Answer
A
Answered by Ethan, Gear Expert, from IL, United States, on July 08, 2022

The BSF Barrels AR-15 .223 Wylde Barrel will require a 0.875" gas block. If you are looking for a standard low profile gas block, I would recommend the Aero Precision Low Profile Gas Block (linked below). If you want an adjustable gas block, I'd recommend the SLR Sentry 8 .875 Adjustable Gas Block (linked below).

Q
Casey Lewis, member, from PA, United States, asked on August 10, 2021

Does this barrel have a dimple to set the gas block?

Expert Answer
A
Answered by Tom B, Gear Expert, from IL, United States, on October 21, 2021

Yes, it does. Per the manufacturer: We put one dimple on the chamber end of the gas landing area. If you line up the rear set screw it will give you perfect alignment. Then simply tighten down the other set screw, just tight enough that it will not back out.
