Will lightening my AR barrel ruin it's accuracy?
I have an RRA 16" non-chrome mid length HBAR AR barrel that I'm considering getting turned down to make lighter. I don't like the weight, but I'm concerned about screwing up it's accuracy. It's sub MOA accurate right now.
I realize that the lighter profile will be more subject to heating up, but I plan on free floating it and shooting it exclusively slow fire with optics.
What do you guys think? Should I lighten it or leave it heavy and work on the arm muscles?
