6.5 Creedmoor AR?

[Major Kong]

Anyone built one? I've got a little bit in my gun fund and am looking hard at one of these. Was looking at a F-1 Firearms upper/lower and BCG, a Luth-AR stock and a Ballistic Advantage barrel. Kind of undecided after that. Any suggestions?

Finally got to fondle my little brother's Ruger. It's pretty sweet for a bolt gun.

If I could find one of those Rugers at non-ridiculous pricing I wouldn't need to build the AR lol.

He told you the deal. He just sat on Gunbroker until he got the right one. I think he paid MSRP.

No problem bud...I like sharing knowledge and making videos. I have a 20" fluted Lilja 6.5cm barrel that will be here this Thursday and Im going to build another upper and compare it to the Christensen Arms carbon fiber barrel.

BTW Fred,

I'm with Fitty on lapping the upper receiver and bedding the barrel. I have done that on several rifles. All indications is that it improves accuracy. I just use Blue Loctite for the bedding compound.,

I'm on board, I just need to talk Fitty into renting me that lapping tool he made

Or you could bring it out and we will square the upper up on my lathe.

Perfect, it's been too long since I've been to Dolomite-land. I should have the upper soon- I'll give you a shout. Thanks.

Looks nice. Care to share the details? Is that a Vortex Razor on top?

Sure.  Basics are:

Mega Receiver Set / Proof Research 24" Barrel / Geissele SSA-E trigger / JP BCG / Vortex Razor Gen I / American Rifle Company QD Mount

That's a really nice setup. How do you like the Proof Research barrel?
