Preorder interest: Premium SS ULUL portless pencil barrel in .223 / 6 x 45 in 16" / 12"

Why does the 12" have half the moq? There's a lot more interest in the 16" length...

It’s a total barrel thing, the true MOQ is number of barrels. That’s how I broke it down because of demand.

Aargh viewing results ended up voting. I'm tempted to ship it to my cousin and build one when I visit next. Would be a nice packable rifle.

My moq is 50 each of the 16” and 25 each of the 12”.

We’re still low. I really wanted to get these in, but might have to wait. It’s not so much the pre-order numbers, but whether they indicate sufficient follow on sales. I know many people don’t do preorders and others will buy as the niche grows.

Don’t despair, other things are in play…

To clarify: You need 50 - 16" 223 + 50 - 16" 6mm + 25 of both the 12" barrels, a total of 150 barrels to make it happen? Or is that incorrect?

I need to be approaching half the MOQ numbers. I am willing to stock barrels that will sell in a reasonable time. If he would let me buy at half those MOQ I would do it right now.

It’s a funding thing so I don’t have money sitting on the shelf when I could be buying other products and investing in development of new ones.

Also, can confirm today that I should get two test barrels next week from another maker.

I don’t have numbers on this one yet, but I am determined to make this happen. Don’t lose hope yet.

A portless 15-16 oz 16" stainless 223 barrel should be fairly easy to sell here if you stocked them. I understand not having the spare money to just play around with though. I definitely want one once it happens. It'll be my last piece to being a totally complete ULUL.

It will be the last piece for my ULUL too. Well, my third and fourth ones…..

add me to the list for a 16" 223

the 18" from BA i have shoots great but definitely front heavy, even with their hanson profile :O

What type of rifling will these barrels use?

Tag, because I don't know how to keep track of this thread otherwise...

I have a rifle completed (minus the barrel) for my daughter for hunting season. Going to put a 16" 6x45 on it. Its the Tennesee lower with NFA LPK. Bear creek bolt action, and a 23 0z scope. Overall with a 16" barrel I think it will still be a 7lb package. Right now its wearing a 6" 300 blackout barrel while I wait....

The more I think about it, the more I like the thought of a 12” 223 for night/thermal predator set up. Rarely if ever shoot over 300 yards. If farther, that scope has drop solutions anyways.
