I’ve got an Anderson AM15 M-Lok with a 16” barrel. I’ve since replaced the BCG with a Bravo Company one. My understanding is the next thing to upgrade would be the barrel. I’m looking to gear this rifle to longer range shooting so im looking for improved ballistics and longevity. Would something like a Faxon or Rosco($200-$300 range) either 16” or longer offer any meaningful improvement to either ballistics or longevity of the rifle or is the difference pretty negligible until you get up to the real high end barrels?
I could comfortably spend up to $350 on a barrel right now but I’m not married to the idea of swapping the barrel now if it’s truly not worth doing at that price range.
