The Ballistic Advantage Hanson Profile .308 barrel solves the challenge of achieving full rifle performance while reducing weight and overall length compared to traditional heavy barrel profiles. The proprietary Hanson contour strategically removes material where it’s not needed while maintaining critical mass at stress points, delivering exceptional accuracy without the bulk.
