HI all,
first post in this form, I have an extra Aero Precision M4E1 lower that I completed a few months back and been kicking around a 6.8 spc or a 6.5 G. I am about 99% sure I am going to build an upper 6.5G and wanted to get some advice on barrels, BCG and mags. I will put it on an AP upper. Considering a 16" inch barrel (preferred?)or maybe an 18" fluted for hunting deer in Maine. but would also like to enjoy some distance shooting . what barrel size would be best? I am looking to pick up the barrel, bcg and mags during the 4th of July sales that will be going on about now. I want to keep the price point reasonable, not going top shelf, but want quality stuff like anyone at a great price. Barrels I am considering are BA, Faxon, brownells , all seem to be around $200-$300. Any other barrel recommendation? as you all know the gun better than I do atm. Also what BCG? I saw armorally has a toolcraft 6.5 for like $90 on sale at https://www.armorally.com/shop/toolc...carrier-group/ good, bad for 6.5G? open to quality suggestions on BCG too. last is good mags?? I am not a reloader, but open to the possibility, so will probably use factory ammo. Appreciate the help and feel free to expand on anything I may have missed. I apologize if I posted this in the wrong place. Not a big forum poster, more of a lurker, when time permits, which is not often.
