Who makes the best semi-auto for accuracy and reliability?

I haven’t read much about feed issues with 6.5’s, but there have been some reports with 6 creeds running the heavy for caliber bullets.
I’ve seen great reviews of the following:
JP LRP-07
GAP 10
Seekins SP-10
Falkor Defense
F4
Wilson Combat
LaRue
I’ve had good luck with my built LR-6.5 using a ballistic advantage barrel and aero receiver set. Its posted some rediculous groups with handloads. My LaRue UU in 6.5creed has also functioned flawlessly in limited use, with some good groups. I don’t know that it’s the most accurate, but it’s probably the best buy for a large frame currently that you don’t have to piece together. The only issue I have is that the upper and lower fit isn’t tight. My Aero set is tighter and has a tensioning screw if needed. Since the UU doesn’t have a tensioning screw, I had to shim each side of the lower to eliminate the play between the receivers.
