Think I'd ask Stonehendge regarding McGowen before I took the plunge...

It's a "dead thread" but there's lots of coverage about the McG barrel failure.
I bought a barrel from them a few yrs back, it shot ok to be fair, but it was a royal pain in the bumper dealing with them, missed deadlines, getting info was like trying to squeeze juice out of a fruit fly... not the type of vendor at the top of my list any more.

Hmmmm my son just got his but a few weeks behind. .224 AI so far he likes it he's staying the 70gr. bullets. Thanks for the info still haven't tapped my BA yet. Found out today it doesn't like CFE223 and SST123

I've been very pleased with my Proof Research Stainless barrel. This one. https://www.midwayusa.com/product/330571/proof-research-barrel-ar-15-65-grendel-rifle-length-gas-port-1-in-8-twist-20-stainless-steel
I used it with a Maxim Bolt. Functions great. Sub MOA all day with almost everything I shoot through. Disclaimer, I do not shoot the Wolf ammo.

I am very happy with my Grandal hunter barrel and the price was reasonable.
