YA. I bought an 18 inch Tactical Kinetics barrel in 6mm arc. It uses the 6.5 Grendel BCG. Bought it during the winter and just finished the rifle back in the Middle of March. Its difficult to critique except to say I have put close to 200 rounds through it and all is well. One thing I did notice was the barrel fit very snug in the upper barrel port. I had to take a rubber hammer and tap the upper while holding the barrel. The upper was a Matrix Aerospace so maybe that offered some resistance vs another upper. The barrel itself is comparatively light. I did put a stainless steel gas block on the barrel just in case but it was a set it and forget it setup. So far so good. I got the barrel off Gunbroker for about $180 on sale. They have some 6.5's right now that run from $170 to $200 depending on length. I will say the barrel is very easy to clean. Its new so I would expect that but I am ACD when it comes to keeping my shooting equipment clean.
