Ballistic Advantage 223 Wylde 16" Mid-Length Tactical Barrel – AR-15

The Ballistic Advantage 16" mid-length tactical barrel in 223 Wylde chambering delivers versatility for shooters who run both .223 Remington and 5.56 NATO ammunition. The 223 Wylde chamber spec provides match-grade accuracy with .223 while safely handling the higher pressures of 5.56 NATO, making this barrel a practical choice for target shooting, training, and general-purpose use. The mid-length gas system reduces felt recoil and improves reliability compared to carbine-length systems.

This barrel is manufactured from 4150 Chrome Moly Vanadium steel with a QPQ nitride finish for corrosion resistance and extended barrel life. The 16" length meets federal non-NFA requirements without requiring a tax stamp. Standard AR-15 barrel extension and .750" gas block journal ensure compatibility with mil-spec upper receivers and gas blocks. Requires headspacing verification during installation.
