          Can't say about their barrel but their tubes and accessories are clean but $$..

          But I think you did your self a favor going with a proven WOA.

            I have the Nordic on one of my ARs. Shoots great. I shoot both my 55gr and 75gr loads and they have the same POI. I'm getting <1 MOA with a 1-4x scope. If I had a better scope, I'm sure I can do better. BTW, I liked the barrel so much I bought another to put a light weight AR together.

                    Not sure how the Nordic and the WOA are that much different. Both seem to be the same weight and barrel profile, both are .223 Wylde, and both start off as Wilson Arms blanks. The main difference seems to be the barrel twist 1:7 WOA vs 1:8 Nordic. I probably would have preferred the 1:8 Nordic.

                    Anyways, here's a decent mini write-up on the Nordic from a guy who was a big Noveske fanboy and moved on to JP. He's using the Nordic on a backup rifle.



                    *ETA: I noticed the OP linked a mid-length WOA barrel. The Nordic is a rifle-length. For me that is a big difference, as I'd like the smoother recoil of a rifle-length gas system over the shorter mid-length.

                      I also would of preferred the rifle length but since it's not in stock and I don't feel like waiting months to complete this build I went for the middy since it was instock , it's going on a Seekins build with a adjustable gas block low mass bcg so I'll be able to tune the rifle to my loads so i don't think it will be an issue. I just can't wait to get this thing together and shoot it. I went woa over Nordic just because I found a ton of great reviews about woa barrel and only a handful of reviews about the Nordic. So i stuck to what has been proven

                        AFAIK, the Nordic is well-loved and proven on the Enos forums. And the rifle-length is in stock.

                          Looks like we have a similar setup except I have a Nordic barrel with rifle gas and no adjustable block. Once you get yours running, let me know if you want to try mine out. I can meet you at the range and we can compare the two.
