Recommended barrels for new build

[1075 tech]

There are more knowledgeable folks than me on this, but I'll give you what I can. This tool will lap down the face of your upper receiver to give more solid contact between the receiver and the barrel extension:

Coating the outside of the barrel extension with blue loctite will fill up any gaps between the receiver and the extentsion.

This tool is very easy to use. Took me only a few minutes to square mine up before installing the barrel. I have a 556 build I need to do that to. The rear site is all the way to one side to get it to zero.
