Lomger barrels doesnt mean better accuracy. Just more velocity.
A good quality M4 barrel with the right ammo is capabale of submoa. So dont get caught up in the long barrel deal.
And 9 twist is usually good up to 68-69gr loads. Every now and again you get lucky and one will group 75-77gr loads good. So just get ready to try a few different kinds of ammo.

You reload?

Not saying it gives ya better accuracy, I was just giving him a good viable option for what he was lookin for. And no I dont reload. Unless the question was directed at him lol

ya nonnie I do reload for majority of my rifles... I have access to 223 dies so I will be reloading for the AR no matter which upper I get. Ya I was thinking about shooting 62's out of the 9 twist. with that wieght bullet I'll take all the velocity I can get haha. Who knows, if I spy a good dealon a 16" 7 twist upper on AR15 I may jump on it. Either way with being able ot reload, I will find what works in what upper.
