[QUOTE="wDoty, post: 4165865, member: 15023"] Don’t know why it has to be a different caliber when different barrel lengths already offer different rifle characteristics, especially if one is reaching for a different caliber to want. It seems backwards. If anything wouldn’t you identify a niche you’d like the rifle/upper to fill, then set about considering caliber/length/optic etc? Anyway, 10.5 or 10.3 works great in 5.56 especially with appropriate ammo. 300BLK is great too but I feel it shines in single digits. 6.5G is a great round but I feel it shines (and is most available) in 12.5 and up. I put together a 10.5 7.62X39 with a Faxon and it’s been amazing. It shoots the cheap steel case into around 3 MOA and premium Hornady around 1 MOA. It really breathes some life into a caliber considered by many to be ‘inaccurate’ largely due to the trash can rifles firing it. [/QUOTE]
