Premium Series 16" .223 Wylde 1:8 Twist Black Nitride Mid-Length Barrel
In stock
Given the popularity of our NBS line of barrels we’ve decided to release a Premium Series. We start with top grade domestically sourced 4150 CrMoV Steel which is then drilled, reamed, button rifled, profiled and chambered in accordance with SAAMI Specifications. These barrels go through a battery of quality assurance checks each step of the way ensuring a remarkably consistent product every time. They are then finished with one of the nicest QPQ Nitride treatments you’ll find on an AR-Barrel. The stainless steel barrel extensions are machined in the same facility, further ensuring a high level of quality and consistency from start to finish. The end result is a barrel with deadly accuracy and rock solid reliability.
Here at AR15Discounts.com we work with a wide variety of machine shops and barrel manufacturers. When we come across a barrel maker we like, we will often decide to private label those barrels for resale under the NBS brand. We purchase these barrels in large quantities and then pass the savings on to our customers.
Why buy an NBS Brand Barrel:
- American Made – Sourced from a variety of Tier 1 Manufacturers here in the United States
- Quality Control – All barrels are manufactured under ISO-9001 or better quality standards
- MOA Guarantee – All barrels 16 and longer are guaranteed to hold 1 MOA or better using properly weighted match grade factory ammo and shooting from a rest.

NBS Premium Series 16 .223 Wylde 1:8 Twist Black Nitride Mid-Length Barrel
My overall experience with this barrel is 1 MOA It's mated to a PSA upper and I'm using a Microbest Phosphate Chrome lined BCG. I Believe the insane accuracy comes from a very tight Headspace I shoot only quality brass . 556 ammo AAC or Igman.. Very Happy..
MY NEW 16” NITRIDE .223 WYLDE BARREL
THIS BARREL HAD A CHAMBER THAT WOULD NOT SEAT A CARTRIDGE. IT FAILED TO FIRE AT THE RANGE. A CAMERA INSIDE THE RIFLING AREA REVEALED SOME OF THE WORST MACHINING FINISHES I’VE SEEN.

Hit and miss but customer service saved the day
The first one I received would not pass a headspace check before assembly. Emailed customer service and got a return label. They emailed back before I had the delivery confirmation letting me know they received it and verified it was a short chamber. Shipped out a new barrel after checking to make sure it would pass a go gauge. New one passed when I got it. Fit and finish was outstanding. Have not been able to stretch it to 100 yards to check the moa guarantee but at 25 yards at my local indoor it shoots right along with my ballistic advantage barrels
