Buy recommendations MRA Renegade barrel recommendations?

Wondering what options are out there on the Canadian market for a 16-18" barrel for an MRA Renegade that would be accurate with a wide variety of factory ammo (kinda similar to what the Ruger American rifles can achieve). I want to avoid getting something that's really picky on what ammo it likes.

Budget-friendly is ideal but willing to consider mid-tier options as well. If the stock barrel works fine then that works as well.

stock barrel is pretty decent on my .308 Maverick

My renegade has the rdsc upgraded Shield Rifleworks 18.6" SR556 MwMATCH-Mod2 barrel they throw on the bcm furniture models.

Threaded | 1/2" × 28 TPI Medium Weight Contour QPQ Nitride BCM Mil-Spec Barrel Extension w 3 prong flash hider.

like another user suggested: if anything swap out the stock trigger. I stuck a 2 stage triggertech diamond in mine. 1.5lb pull for bench shooting.

Slightly off topic, but how do you like the .308 Maverick? Any cons? I haven't had a chance to check them out in person.

factory stock, trigger, and grip are all meh, but easily replaceable.

the rifle itself? love it. I take it out more than the Renegade. MRA says both rifles have a break in period, which I found true for the Renegade, but the Mav ran smooth right out the gate.

Only genuine concern I have would be ammo price over time, but Ive been collecting all my brass for eventual reloading.
