Aero Precision LR308 Upper w/out BCG, or Pricier Complete Upper?

I have an old DPMS LR308B I mistakenly bought new because I thought it was a precision rifle. I also bought a ton of Radway Green, which shows how much I knew.

I am thinking about putting a 6.5 Creedmoor upper on it. I keep telling myself I will hunt hogs some day, and I like the idea of a gas gun with more power than an AR-15. I have two other 6.5 rifles, and I have enough reloading supplies to produce hundreds of hunting rounds.

In all likelihood, I will never get around to shooting hogs, but, you know...any excuse to fiddle with guns.

Aero Precision sells a barreled upper for a reasonable price, with no BCG. I said, "Fine. I'll get a BCG. How much can it cost?" Then I saw them being offered for $200, minimum. I had assumed I was going to be closer to $100.

I don't care all that much about $200, but once you start adding junk to an Aero Precision upper, you start getting close to the price of an upper from a snootier and perhaps better manufacturer. Primary Arms has Aero Precision fluted 22" uppers for $724, so once you add the handle and BCG, a complete $1200 upper starts looking like less aggravation and possibly a better product.

What would you do? Spend over $900 on Aero Precision with a new BCG and handle, get Aero Precision and use your old DPMS BCG, or move to a somewhat pricier complete upper?

DD5V4 and ammo

Greetings new member,
I recently switched from a Victor .308 to the DD5v4. The victor seemed to shoot good 100yd groups on cheap PMC . The DD5v4 on the other hand was not so good. Having said that there are contributing factors to this.

DD5 brand new 50 rds
i normally run CMC Single Stage triggers and straight out the box reverting to a heavy mil-spec ... iykyk

So generalized questions:

what has anyone found to be a great off the shelf ammo to shoot for decent precision?
reloading formulas ?

Thank you for any information.

AICS stock help- install sawtooth arca rail with badger IMUNS

I recently acquired a Mk13 Mod 5 that included a badger IMUNS. In order to modernize the rifle a bit I purchased a sawtooth 12" (ish) arca rail that mounts to the bottom of the stock..... now that I have the arca rail and I'm ready to install I'm finding I have to remove the "locking plate" (the piece with the bipod sling swivel) from the IMUNS in order to get a flat surface on the bottom of the stock so that the arca mounts correctly.

Is the "locking plate" actually required for the IMUNS to be mounted properly? If torque from the locking plate is required for the IMUNS, any ideas on a work around that I can use to provide that torque while still running the sawtooth arca rail?
