The link will take you to an in stock 16” mid length. Can’t vouch for the vendor.
Patience. Criterion Core is what you seek. Your BA barrel will do fine until then. Core>Stealth for maneuverability. I can shoot my Core more accurately than my Stealth.

I had similar requirements and landed on the SAI6 1-6. Digin’ it so far. Shot it out to 600 yards. Glass is great, reticle is only daylight visible but I really like how the four bullet points bring your eye to center
