Ballistic Advantage 338 ARC 16″ Premium Black Series Hanson Pistol Barrel

Maximize the capabilities of your AR-15 platform with the Ballistic Advantage 338 ARC 16″ Premium Black Series Hanson Pistol Barrel. Engineered for superior velocity, extended-range accuracy, and dependable performance, this barrel is a top choice for hunting, tactical applications, and precision shooting with the .338 ARC cartridge.
Crafted from premium 416R stainless steel and finished with a QPQ corrosion-resistant treatment, the 16″ Hanson Profile barrel offers exceptional durability, wear resistance, and a sleek black appearance. The Hanson Profile eliminates the standard barrel shoulder, improving barrel harmonics, reducing felt recoil, and enhancing handling balance without sacrificing rigidity or accuracy.

The pistol-length gas system is tuned for reliable cycling and optimized dwell time, particularly beneficial when running suppressed.
The threaded muzzle (5/8×24) supports easy installation of suppressors and muzzle devices. An included Lo-Pro .875 gas block ensures efficient gas flow while maintaining a slim, low-profile setup ideal for streamlined builds and lightweight handguards.
