    Which twist rate for 300 blackout?

    Its totally dependant on barrel length, with 300 the longer the barrel the slower the twist. You are good to go with 1:7 from 16" down to around 8". At 8" I would start to switch to a 1:6 till around a 6" barrel and below I would do a 1:5 although Q has has excellent luck with a 1:5 on a 7"...

    Ambi Lowers from ADM vs Falkor vs Seekins vs LMT vs LWRCi

    LMT is totally obtainable at that price, you just need to sign up for alerts and pull the trigger when it comes in stock. I have recived 2 or 3 notifications this year for under $300. To answer the OP's question, both LMT and ADM (only two on your list I have used) are excellent with solid...

    what do you think of AK?

    I would rather have an AR but I'm fine with an AK with a red dot and a light. That can easily be archived with an Ultimak and thorntail mount. I have a 74 arsenal that I would take to war if that was all I had. I think you should be agnostic with any of the systems and know how to run them all.

    Which should I vote off the island?

    Presample depot had then for around 3500 a while back. You could look around and find it cheaper. I just saw those about a month ago. But like LEO trade in GLOCKS they look like they have under 500 rounds of use.

    Which should I vote off the island?

    I think the SR is a special gun. On the Reliability side of the AR house it has features that no one else has. Because of that and it was the final chapter of Stoner I think it's a no brainer keeper. The HK in my opinion is not a special gun. If it was a real 416 upper than that would be...

    Adjustable vs Non-adjustable Gas Block

    Do you still have the A2 gas block? If you do I have seen this in the past where because the way the A2 and barrel mate up when you take that away you change the harmonics. I would generally recommend to shave down the A2 to fit under a free float handguard. This has the benefit of keeping the...

    Trigger Pins Walk Out

    Just call Geissele. They have fantastic customer service that I have used many times. You should not need anti rotation pins if everything is on spec.

    Trigger Pins Walk Out

    I would ping Geissele and get them to send you new trigger pins just to check for tolerance stacking. If after receiving, installing and using the new pins you still have the same issue I would contact Aero for a new lower.

    SBR Build questions

    Any idea on the port size of the proof? For your use case, I would not use the adjustable gas block. With that suppressor I think you will be fine.

    Advice on QD mount for Vortex Razor 1-10

    Just as an FYI the Scalarworks is not really a qd mount. It is more of a toolless mount. The way it is designed the knobs can sometimes be a bitch but the main issue is, you have to go back and forth between the knobs so you dont apply too much force to one side locking it up (unclear to me why...

    What's a good shorty upper for suppressed use?

    Have you ever taken a 2 day carbine course?

    What's a good shorty upper for suppressed use?

    The V Seven will be as accurate as the noveske if not more so. The jp will also be very accurate.

    What's a good shorty upper for suppressed use?

    With the adjustable gas block requirement I would say no you would want to build. Unclear to me why you would have a high accuracy requirement with an eotech. My easy button without a stainless steel barrel would be a DDM4 V7S. Its properly gassed and generally will shoot 1.5 moa with decent...

    KAC URX 3.1 FDE handguard

    To my knowledge they would have been a mil contract or come off a full fde mil SR. There is is a KAC forum on arfcom that may be helpful in your quest.

    Sig 716 DMR gen1 vs. SCAR 20S

    308 gas guns are much harder to shoot than AR15s and bolt guns. In your shooting what ammo were you using? Did sig say what ammo they used in their test target? Is this your first 308 gas gun? The sig and the SCAR 20 are two different guns with different use cases. One is more of a precision...

    Knights armament SR 25 accuracy?

    I would say I can shot a precision AR fairly well (sub MOA). 308 gassers not as well (1.5 MOA) but I am learning. But when my SR25 has a good day and I am having a good day I get results like this out of my APC (far better results than out of a PredatOBR):

    Are My Expectations Too High?

    Completely agree with this. Every barrel has its own personality. You and your buddy may get the exact same barrel but they may like different loads. I generally try 6 or 7 match loads of different weights to see what the gun likes and go from there. The holy grail is one that likes them all.
