Can I get good accuracy without the JP price tag? What else is there? A stag 3g upper is about my most precession rig so I am a noob when it comes to good barrels. This will be going on a aero m5 setup. Primary purpose is occasional deer hunt and maybe a couple 1000+ yard pokes a couple times a year when I get an invite. Do I need XL gas? Adjustable gas? I do have a Saker 7.62 I will run on it.

I like my Kreiger barrel. I would get an Aero BCG or JP high pressure bolt.  I also have a syrac adjustable gas block on this build.

XL gas and a high pressure bolt help a whole lot on the big 6.5s.

I'll be going with Lija for my 6.5 AR.

Easy.. Rainier Arms Ultra Match, Others are good too, kreiger, lilja.. but I have had 2 RA UM barrels and both have been .5 moa rifles, best was .441 moa at 100 5 shot for 308 and the 6.5 cm was .411 moa.. Im by no means a great shooter and they are very accurate for me.

I actually have an Aero BCG. Are these high pressure like the JP ones?

The Aero bolts use a smaller diameter firing pin than standard. IIRC it's .005 larger than JP's and .010 smaller than most others. It seems to solve the primer issues just like the JP does.

On the Aero. I think the JPs flat, but they reduced the diameter of it on the HP bolt.

Just buy a Krieger and be done with it.
