I know there are lots of you around... :cheer2:
I think I already know the answer to this, but I figured I'd get some input anyway, just to be sure.
I'm building a 16" 6.8 AR for hog/deer hunting and I'm trying to find/decide on a barrel right now. I know that I need to get a SPC II or 6.8x43 chamber and I will be handloading for it. This is the barrel I have in mind right now:

Can I go wrong with this barrel?
Also, should I go ahead and get one of their Superbolts if I buy this barrel?
Thanks!

AR Performance 16" 6.8 Socom profile barrel- 4150 CMV
4150 CMV 6.8 Socom profile barrel with a more accurate ARP chamber and Hybrid 5R rifling 11.25 twist . 2lb-0oz
M4 feed ramps, mid length gas system, .800 under the guard, .750 gas block dia. .700 dia from gas block to muzzle. 5/8-24 thread muzzle.
Melonite treated barrels have proven to last 30% longer than chromelined barrels and are more accurate.
These barrels are as accurate as any 6.8 barrels made, many report 1/2" groups at 100yds with Hornady 110gr HPBT factory ammo. This is a barrel only, it does NOT include any other parts unless added below as an option.
