To take it further, the 'lightweight do-everything sort of' rifles are like crossovers - everybody wants one, but it's a compromise on a compromise for most.
My contribution on what I think a go-fast rifle would be:
Noveske or KAC 16" Intermediate Gassed Barrel with a brake
11"-13" Handguard
S&B Short Dot (or Z6i, or Leupy Mk6)
Geissele trigger on a UBR or VLTOR A5 lower (EMOD or ACS)
If Wes gets any Noveske Inter SS barrels in, I'll have exactly that with a DD handguard, and hopefully a Mk6 optic.

I don't believe gas port makes an appreciable difference and it's something the typical shooter has absolutely no control over (or understanding of, for that matter).
But, to assuage any concerns re: gas port I'm hoping that I can kill two birds with one stone and use the same barrels for my mid-length v. carbine-length test for this project and if all works out well those two barrels will be sourced from the same manufacturer.

“Laws that forbid the carrying of arms disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes. Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.” –Thomas Jefferson, quoting 18th century criminologist Cesare Beccaria in “On Crimes and Punishment”, 1764
That makes sense. The misses he had up high, if he were to have aimed for the body, would have been within a 8-10" circle center mass.
The middle target he was shooting at, I could tell 2 shots were misses to the left of the head, but had he been aiming for the body, would have been in. On the right target, it appears he had one shot miss the head, but again would have been center mass if it was a body shot.
Up for a question for those with the experience.
I'm considering a "fast" build for competition use. I'm looking at Noveske's SS 18" barrel with the Intermediate gas system and the same barrel from MSTN with a rifle system.
Does anybody have any insight as to how much, if any, benefit can be gained from the extra 1.5" of gas system for somebody wanting smooth and fast?

Either way is going to be good, and the effect of your brake is going to cover any minor difference.
I had a Noveske 18" SPR in my 3-gun rifle and it was a great setup in all regards, if just a bit barrel heavy.
