So I have decide that I want to build precision .308 AR. The reciever I have chosen is from Tactical Machining, I went this route because it is only $200. It is a DPMS style lower. My plan is to slowy assembly this rifle over the next year as I get the money and find the right parts. I would like this rifle to be as accuracte as possible, at this point I am not worrying about the price since its a longer term project. So far I have in my head: -Tactical Machining 308 lower -NM 2-Stage trigger -Tactical Machining upper when/if they become available just to have the recievers match. -Not sure on a BCG yet, any suggestions? -A2 stock -PRI Free Float Black and maybe their SPR riser. -PRI 308 Flip up front sight gas block -KAC 600m rear -Not sure on the barrel, was thinking Krieger and have them assemble and match the bolt. Not sure on length or twist rate, any suggestions? -Should I not use the PRI front gas block/sight because most match barrels don't use a .750" at GB? -The barrel will not be threaded. -Optic is tbd. Open to suggestions Thanks, Ian |
| Fulton Armory comes to mind, for many of the parts. Make sure you check them out. I'd recommend the complete BCG and possible a barrel - not sure if they have any unthreaded barrels or not. At any rate, their barrels are definitely worth looking at, if you'd consider a threaded barrel. |

I'm halfway done building my dpms style .308. If you want to go with a Kreiger barrel the be prepaired to wait 20 weeks. I just called twice on two different occasions last week to try to get one and that's what they told me both times. I called many custom gun builders until I found one.
What grain bullets do you wanna shoot? That will tell you what twist rate to go with. I'm doing a fulton armory upper (with forward assist, shell deflector and dust cover) and chrome BCG, kreiger 1/11 twist, 26'' heavy contour, fluted, stainless steel moly coated black, with a accuracy systems ASI maxi recoil reduction brake (moly coated black too) and custom gas block. DD 12 inch free float quad rail RRA 2-stage trigger Magpul PRS 10 Pmags 
hogue grip gg&g bipod trijicon 5.5-20x accupoint with mil-dot redicle armalite 30MM one piece scope rail Christian Hofmeister at Hofmeister Custom Shop is putting it together It should be the sickest/most accurate ALL BLACK .308 on the planet in my book. |

I'm not worried about anywaiting since this will be done over the next year. I will probably order a barrel as soon as I have the cash. Anyone know if Krieger will do a barrel .750" at the gas block/muzzle |
