Hey guys I am going to pull the trigger on an upper today. I’m getting the aero precision m5. I just don’t know which to go with. I shoot mostly at 500 or so but would like the capability to shoot 1000 yards with it. The options are the 20” or 22”. The difference really lies in the barrel diameter .875 for the 20 and .936 for the 22. I’m more concerned with group size inside 500. Any experience in this or opinions on which way to go? Also I shoot mainly 140 Bthp since I have thousands of them in the safe
 
Either barrel should get you to 1k. Are you planning to use a suppressor, and are you concerned with weight? If so you may want to go with the 20.”
