Ballistic Advantage 556 16in CHF Hanson Mid-Length AR-15 Barrel 1-7 1/2-28

The Ballistic Advantage BALLISTIC BBL 556 16" CHF HNSN MID delivers proven reliability for AR-15 platforms with a cold hammer forged 5.56x45 mid-length barrel that pairs durability with steady, repeatable accuracy. Finished in black and built around a 16" Hanson-contour profile, this barrel is optimized for mid-length gas operation to balance smooth cycling with consistent muzzle rise, making it well-suited for precision work from plinking to heritage marksmanship. The rifle-length stability is enhanced by a 1-7 rifling twist, which stabilizes a wide range of common 5.56 ammunition weights while maintaining accuracy at typical range distances. Muzzle threading of 1/2-28 accommodates common suppressors and compensators, enabling versatile muzzle device configurations without sacrificing performance. Designed for AR-15 builds, this barrel offers reliable chambering for 5.56x45mm NATO and a robust mid-length gas system that promotes smoother recoil impulse and longer barrel life under heavy use. The combination of the Hanson contour, mid-length gas system, and cold hammer forged construction results in a barrel that is both accurate and durable, making it an excellent choice for builds focused on consistency, reliability, and real-world accuracy in varied shooting scenarios.
