Suggestions for 6.5CM: Proof Stainless CAMGAS or Criterion Hybrid

[Winny94]

I'm looking for a 22" 6.5CM 308 AR barrel and I've got it narrowed down to the Criterion Hybrid or Proof Stainless CAMGAS. The Proof comes at a $75-$100 premium. Is the CAMGAS system worth it? Any thoughts one way or another?

It'll be used for both steel ringing out to 800 and deer hunting.

I think both are good choices. You can't go wrong with either company. Criterion might be a bit more established and they are good people from what I have dealt with them in the past, so that would be my choice.

Any particular reason you're not looking at Bartlein, Kreiger, or Lilja barrel out of curiosity?

The +2 gas system is very important, regardless of the barrel maker you choose.
