DD vs Noveske?

[Striker071]

looking for a sbr barrel.

DD 10.3
or
Noveske 10.5 ....light series


Which and why?

Between the two, I'd go with the Noveske for the M249 specs and Noveske's general barrel reputation. When I was faced with that SBR question, though, I opted for an 11.5 (BCM) for it's increased dwell time and supposedly less-problematic cycling. I was more concerned about that than whatever small difference in accuracy there might be. I probably would have gone with the 10.5 if I were going to shoot it full-time suppressed, most likely 10.5 with switchblock so I could shoot it part-time suppressed, but suppressors are a no-go in this state.

Buy the barrel that is cheaper, and in stock.

I wouldn't have second thoughts about either one.
