Oddbean new post about login | logout I'm not saying it a failure to build and own. Or that or can't be done Example- Getting a 6.5 creed chambered ar10 to cycle right makes for an amazing range toy. (There's a reason i keep several adjustable bleed-off gas blocks on hand) I'm addressing the claim of "ultimate". They are almost always much more finicky and issue prone and it wouldn't be my first choice in a complex situation.
That makes sense. I've yet to finish my 16" 308 build. Maybe I'll find the issues you are talking about. 😅
Or maybe you'll be one of the lucky ones that gets it set up right the first time. Let me know if you do run into issues. I may be able to help.
I *think* I have most things figured out. The one thing I don't know is if the gas port on the upper is sized correctly. It seems some of them aren't from Aero... So, I may end up having to pull the upper apart if it is undergassed. I've got a solid plan for the buffer system: A5 length buffer tube Tubbs rifle length spring Odinworks heavy adjustable carbine length buffer I am going to spend the money on a set of go and no go headspace gages. I'm not playing around with 308 being out of spec. That gets into big oof territory if that is wonky.
