Next SBR quandry

[airoot]

so, I currently have a DD 300BLK 10.5 factory sbr, and a PSA 5.56 10.5 CHF SBR that I also built a 4.5" 22lr upper for. I have the hankering for a high quality 11.5 or 12.5 5.56 setup. I'm debating between building a BCM 11.5 upper and getting a mini can to put on my DD lower, or sucking it up and grabbing a KAC SR 15 complete 11.5 SBR. Budget including stamp is $2500 (I've found a KAC SR 15 for sale new at $2037)

What say you ODT - anyone have first hand experience with either? Any recommendations?

Build a 12.5" 6.8! The 6.8 is optimized around 12.5~. Good hunter out to 300~

This would be my choice, if buying Factory SBR

That is my favorite AR currently. I took a DD Ambush 6.8 and cut it down to ~13" and put a 2-10 scope on it. Its a hog and deer hammer and I can hit my 500yd gong like clockwork with it.

Well now you guys have me going down all kinds of rabbit holes researching 6.8

12.5" 6.8 barrel in stock right now. Great barrel from someone who knows 6.8. May as well get one of his Superbolts while you're at it.

That's why I don't ask questions like that on here. These guys will get you into all kinds of trouble

Check out Bison Armory on the 6.8 build

save the $, buy an AR pistol, add the SB Tactical brace, and be happy. Buy ammo with the hundreds you saved.
