Not heard of either of those companies.
AR pattern rifles are not *expressly* designed for accuracy. If you're wanting accuracy, I would look for a barrel length of at least 18" |

I own three Triarcs, including a 13.9, and voted appropriately. I didn't think they would be worth the price but I'm glad I was wrong. They are the most accurate guns I own and I've sold off all the rest.

I have not owned a Triarc although they do have a good reputation. OTOH, I do own Radian and even their older stuff, previously known as AXTS. The Radian is absolutely top notch. Their ADAC lower also has ome unique features. Having assembled them myself, I can say they are beautifully machined and executed inside and out. Radian is perhaps my favorite AR company. If you are buying a factory built rifle, they also use AR Gold triggers, their own Raptor charging handle and Talon safety which are among the best and even other companies use their stuff.

I’m a fan of Triarc, but at the prices of complete rifles, KAC all day. Also to OP, on Radian’s IG there are quite a few people complaining about not receiving the rifles after 18+ months. I think the most I saw was 24 months since they ordered and no rifle with almost zero communication from Radian. |

If you're wanting accuracy, I would look for a barrel length of at least 18" Ugh. . . accuracy is independent of barrel length . . . except that there is less whip in a shorter barrel, so there is some data that suggests, ceteris paribus, that a shorter barrel is actually more accurate than a long barrel. Will this nonsense never end? This is why physics and firearms should be taught in high schools. Velocity increases with length. So, unless you're talking about going through the transonic range, barrel length could probably (in most cases) be ignored when it comes to discussions of "accuracy." |

Sub MOA? Here are my recommendations.
- Compass Lake Engineering - White Oak Armament - Keystone Accuracy Just make sure it has a good barrel, float tube and a good trigger. Douglas, Krieger, Bartlein, Shilen, Hart ....... |

triarc 13.9 upper (pin gas and muzzle device at factory) on the radian lower and a5 tube.
cant go wrong with either. i have a 14.5 radian with criterion barrel, but i tend to prefer a slimmer rail. ive heard that the radian complete rifle is a bit heavy, i think that is from the barrel. im pretty sure radian lower is heavier but IMO the best lower on the market. i think the 12.5 mid triarc upper and the radian lower, safety, CH, the A5 buffer and your favorite trigger would make a perfect all around gun. ill post a pic of that in about 9-13 wks. if money aint a thang, you gotta try a KAC. i want to. |

Consider having a match barrel made from a top quality blank like Krieger or Lilja, etc
Ie Precision firearms or some other well known barrel shop |

If you're wanting accuracy, I would look for a barrel length of at least 18" Barrel length is not a relevant variable if you’re talking about precision, which you’re calling accuracy. All other things being equal, there is no reason why a 10.5” barrel won’t be capable of the same level of precision as a 20” barrel. The only thing you’re giving up is velocity. Please stop repeating this. We should be better than this. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I would buy the Triarc over the Aero all day. Aero makes decent stuff but I will not buy from them after the shit the pulled in the early 201x’s. What did they do in the early 201x's? |

Under 1 moa out-of-the-box is ammo dependent. If you think any rifle will consistently shoot M193/M855 under 1 moa you are in for a rude awakening. Buy a White Oak Armament upper and put it on any lower you want. You will have the potential to shoot sub moa immediately provided your ammo is up to the task.
If you want a dependable duty/self-defense rifle any name brand will serve you well: LMT Daniel Defense Colt are all top picks. |
