Lightweight Barrel Options in 20" - HuntJefferson - 07-16-2020

Looking for a lightweight barrel to replace the 20" BCA HBAR on a hunting rifle, I see the below lightweight options in 1:8 twist Grendel II chamber. Any other 20" barrels under 2 lbs?

Faxon Gunner 20" - 1.92lbs
Ballistic Advantage DMR Fluted 20" 33oz (2.06lbs)
Satern Liberty 20" Medium Double Fluted 2.10lbs
Satern Liberty 19" Medium double fluted 2.06lb


Just for fun, same barrels in 18"
Faxon Gunner 18" 1.68lb (Mid gas)
Ballistic Advantage SPR Fluted 18" 31.3oz (1.96lbs)
Satern Liberty Medium double fluted 18" 2 lb. (Mid Gas)

Lightest weight factory barrel your going to find is the 18 inch JP sammi grendel chambered barrel.

Are you can get Mark at PF to make you what you want, fluting will not be as light weight as a thinner profile, so if you want light weight. Get Mark too profile it spaghetti thin at whatever length you want.
