My Build - Jimmy - 12-05-2015 So far this is what I have. Lower: PSA Liberty Stock: Magpul ASC Mil Spec Buffer Tube: Spikes with T2 Buffer Trigger: PSA QMS Kit Upper: Aero Precision w/milspec charging handle Looking at running a 20" barrel, Voodoo Integral BCG, JP adjustable gas block. I have a set of dies coming along with 2 mags. Next purchase will be the barrel. My Build - danm - 12-06-2015 Looks like a great start, I have the same stock and it works great for what I do. My Build - ah1whiskey - 12-06-2015 looks good-- what barrel are you going to get? My Build - am4966 - 12-06-2015 Looks good so far, might want to lap the upper before installing barrel. Heard good thing about the vodoo bolt carrier. My Build - devildogandboy - 12-06-2015 your off to a great start, it's gonna look good! Bruce My Build - Jimmy - 12-07-2015 Not sure on barrel maker but will either go with a 20" or 22" barrel. Also I will replace the trigger and hammer spring seeing as how it breaks at about 5.5lbs. I don't mind it but I do like a light trigger. My Build - customcutter - 12-07-2015 What's your intended use? Hunting or paper punching, and what distances? I'm sure you can get some input. I thought I wanted a 20", but got an 18" after realizing I wasn't giving up much muzzle velocity, and it was for hunting at relatively short distances, most of the time. Now I'm building another "lighter" hunting rifle. My Build - Jimmy - 12-07-2015 Hunting and would like to have to ability to hunt effectively out to 500yds with enough energy to make an effective kill. I currently hunt and shoot a sporterized Swedish Mauser with a 24" barrel and it's a .5 MOA rifle at 100yds. Plan on stretching it's legs when summer arrives. My Build - LRRPF52 - 12-07-2015 For Wyoming and hunting those distances, I would go with at least a 20" medium-heavy profile. My Build - Jimmy - 12-12-2015 Got my set of dies in today. Got plenty of bullets to experiment with. My Build - Jimmy - 12-31-2015 I have a JP adjustable gas block coming but it seems the clearance for a free float handguard is going to be an issue. It is for .750 barrel, height 1.40" with a .775 over bore. Who makes a handguard that will fit over this or should I just leave it exposed for easy access?
