Another vote for BCM here, they come highly recommended for a variety of reasons. If you still want to emphasize accuracy, I've had great results from LaRue's Stealth line of uppers. They're a bit on the pricey side but very, very capable.

Good equipment is no substitute for good training.
Unfortunately I have to be "vague" due to the amount of trash I see on a fairly regularly basis. If lugging around a 11 pound rifle with incorrect buffer, lack of carrier key stakings, etc.. appeals to some I would recommend checking them out.
Considering the amount of rounds myself and others have put through BCM and other AR's I have confidence in them.

I'm straying into opinion territory here but hearing the term "sniper rifle" bugs me as most "sniper rifles" are just rifles with a scope. The main complainers always want to label something with a scary, militaristic term. The video game kids on the internet who tout their new Remington 770 with a cheap tasco as their "R700 sniper rifle" do not help. I always thought a well trained actual military sniper made the rifle what it was. There were Civil War sharp shooters(the term of the day) who were precursors to modern military snipers who would stand in awe of a pre 64 Winchester and a redfield scope. In fact I always found it amusing and disheartening that Colts C.A.R. stood for Colt Accurized Rifle despite being stainless freefloat flattop to avoid the whole "sniper" connotations.
But on topic, the only JP part that ever interested me really was their free float handguard. I believe Viking Tactics makes a similar or uses a rebranded version. That and I have a friend who uses one of their brakes on a gamer gun. Can't speak to the quality of their BCGs or complete rifles nor will I. I do believe they upcharge to the gamer gun crowd.
FWIW the Mk12 upper I want would be the BCM. It's simply a matter of saving my rubles and kopecks for one. Still kick myself over missing the SAM-R upper boat. I keep bringing it up but only in testament to how much I wanted one. C'est la vie.

Damnit...
Why do the loudest do the least?
Well, apparently, anything I buy must be an HBAR. (Another reason to hate the state I live in.) Since all of BCM comes preconfigured, looks like I need to look at a custom build. Unless I am missing something?
I'll give JP a call and I hear Virginia Arms in Manassas is pretty good... I'll keep you updated on what I decide.
Thanks again!
