Oh, I've got 5.56, too. I originally built a 300 BLK because I could use the same BCG and mags, and I first thought I would just do a barrel swap. Changed my mind and built a complete rifle. But, I also hunt and reload. I haven't gotten into the suppressed game yet, but that's a viable option someday!

I will be taking delivery on a custom bolt gun in 762x39 tomorrow that is being built to humble all those 300 blackout and 762 black rifles at the range. I am quite confident it will do just that too. :thumbup3:

Finished getting parts for my .300blk today from FBT.....mounted my SS 16" FBT barrel on the Anderson upper and installed the low profile gas block/tube.....went to dimple the barrel for gas block set screw and the entire upper popped out of the vise! Grrrrr I hadn't tightened it down enough and of course the barrel hit the concrete garage floor right on the end, dinging the flash hider threads. Sighs....30 slow minutes with a small triangle file and the flash hider screwed on with no problems. 12.5" FBT forward grip mounted up and its ready to shoot with the new nitride BCG and a med Gunfighter charging handle.

Any problems with shooting it with my 5.56 lower?
Hope to load some 125's tomorrow pushed by a bit of 1680...
