Guess its time to post some pictures on my build. She is basically complete, but want to swap out the gas block for an SLR Sentry. Was holding off on adjustables because they all need straight tubes. I could not find a straight tube to fit Armalite's rifle length gas system, so I have been putting it off. Now that SLR has the Sentry out, Im just looking to sell a few parts not needed, and get me one.
Build List: Mega Matched ambi set Norgon mag catch Seekins Mag catch button BADASS Crank+Short/Thin Geisselle SD-C LaRue Grip Magpule UBR with strike plate and Enhanced pad BCM CH with Large latch PRI Delta handguard PRI Gas block Armalite AR10T barrel cut down to 18" Armalite BCG Griffin Flash/Comp with taper mount Magpul PRO sights, the rear fits under the SWFA 10x scope with just microns to spare. I never used photo sharing sites, so here goes nothing. I just accidentally closed my other post and lost everything. I was done too, dag gummit.  </a>" />
 </a>" />
 " />
 </a>" />
 </a>" />
 </a>" />
Scope still needs to be zeroed, and lined up. Its just hand tight for the photos. ETA: had a double picture. This thing is not light, but very maneuverable, I think I want an ACOG, or something in a similar compact package. The scope is great, but I think a bit overkill. I've only sHot 4 mags so far, but with different sights and no scope. Functioned fine, blast from the muzzle was less a 556 dynacomp at the Range. Recoil caught me off guard, didn't expect it to be so tame. Will be doing a full Range report when I get the new gas block. |

See Here: http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_3_121/646354_TODAY____FINALLY____It_SHALL_be_shot___.html Long story short: it behaved exactly as my research ( a big thank you to EVERYONE here ) lead me to believe it would. I am SOOOOOOOOOO glad I bought an adjustable gas block. By the end of the session ( 85 rounds ) it was locking on empty and feeding 100 percent at the 50 percent level( 10 rounds ) in all of the mags. As everything breaks in, I am gonna start cutting back the gas flow a bit. |

Midway USA has DPMS and Midway's "AR Stoner" brand (C Products or ASC IIRC)
Quality of those two is meh but you aren't going to find a whole lot of quality options without blocking a PMAG yourself. http://www.predatormastersforums.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=2250013 |

Don't worry about the gap between the rail and receiver, its supposed to be there. Some are just a little bigger than others. Good looking rifle.

I started my list for a 6.5 Creedmore build this fall. Am I wrong for wanting the non-monolithic upper? Rather, get the one with rail mounts built in instead. This one:
The monolithic upper is rock-solid of course, but you're married to it forever. I know the one pictured locks you in to Mega's handguards, but who knows what they might come up with in the future. What say you? |

I really like my Apex for instance...but there are so many stellar choices that I'd hate to limit myself to just what Mega may or may not offer. However, if you like the Mega offerings for handguards....by all means, go for it. |

So in my personal opinion it is added weight for no real advantage. I would personally recommend 18" but 20" would be a fine choice as well. Just one man's opinion though. |

Average velocity loss per inch with a .308 is +/- 25fps. So, average loss going from 26-18" would be closer to 200fps. Velocity not only depends on barrel length and powder used but tightness of the bore plays a big role and can vary from barrel to barrel. For a long range .308 bench rifle, 26" would be the best length as it will give the best velocity. For something you plan on carrying or hunting, 18"-22" would be a good compromise. I have a 20" and don't find it to be too long and have shot out to 1000 yards with no problem. |

26" is way too long for an AR. The powder is done burning at 21" IIRC, also with the AR, you tap the barrel for gas, so you lose significant amount of power past your gas block. So having a standard rifle length system, you have somewhere around an extra 14" or so the bullet travels with a loss of oomph behind it.
BUT, that longer barrel does make your bullets fly a little straighter and more stable. So you get better precision out of a longer barrel. But if you want to be surgically precise, might as well get a bolt gun. IMO, anything longer than 22" on an AR is a waste of space and weight. At 22", you get almost max velocity, and still plenty of barrel to stabilize your bullets and give you plenty of consistency. |

Posted: 5/15/2014 11:20:02 AM EDT
[#30]
Even if the powder burnt up at 21" (this can vary with different powder), you are still getting pressure pushing the bullet faster. You actually loose very little velocity due to the gas port on an AR. My 20" gas .308 shoots faster than my 20" bolt .308.
Barrel length has little to do with mechanical accuracy or stability. Twist and velocity determine the stability. |

That's impressive about your AR. I was under the impression twist plus barrel length helped stabilize bullets better.
Say, a 12" barrel will not stabilize a bullet as well as a 20" barrel, given the twist is 1:10. Sure, the bullet, quality of rifling in the barrel, powder, etc all play factors. But if everything was the same excerpt length, you will get better consistency out of the 20" barrel, correct? Not saying your wrong, just trying to learn something different. I personally wouldn't have anything over 24", and that's in a bolt gun. Rifles become very awkward to handle at that point for me. |

Good news. I just successfully disassembled my dpms .308 rifle buffer apart and filled it with 4oz of tungsten powder. I took the buffer apart by punching out the roll pin and trashing the weights inside but I kept the rubber spacers. I then filled the buffer with powder and set the 6 rubber spacers on top to pack the tungsten a little. Then I put silicon on the rubber cap and closed her up and drove the roll pin in. The tungsten has a little room to shake and will act like a dead blow hammer when the bolt is returned. The tungsten can be purchased at golf smith for $25 per 4oz

Ok guys lets be honest here 20" .308 barrel is all fine and dandy does the job. sure 26" will give better shot placement at 1000yd but if you are trying to use a .308 for a consistent 1000yd gun there is other issues.
I love the .308 round to death but lets face facts the average shots you will be taking will be well within 1000 yards. as for the only loss of 75fps loss between 26" and 18" Id love to see what kind of FGGM's you are shooting. between a 20"and 18" this number is correct. If you are looking for a good package while saving weight go 18" it will give you the best weight saving with out loosing the stability that a longer barrel creates but this is at great distance and your average shooter will not even notice. you will notice a longer barrel shoots a little bit nicer in the wind but all things being equal you are more likely to suffer user error than a barrel being 2" too shoot. |

except for the fact that its starting to travel faster and faster.... its not making any more rotations per foot but it does that foot at a greater speed thus when the bullet comes out it is spinning at a faster rate.

A bullet with a 2700 MV out of a 1-11 barrel will be spinning faster once it leaves the gun than a 2400mv out of same barrel. hence me stating its not going to make more of a rotation per foot of barrel but added MV of longer barrel will spin bullet at a faster speed. just like Rpm its still making the same twist but its making it faster due to higher speed. The buller till makes one turn per foot but its making the turn faster

What optic should you guys recommend, I want a scope with around 20 power on top, mil/ mil, first focal plane, preferable made in USA and I am willing to spend around $1500 but that could change if necessary

No, you can pick them up in the 1,800-1,900 range with the TMR or mildot reticle. They are a nice little package. Another option to consider is the Bushnell ERS 3.5-21X50. They are awesome scopes for the money. |
