I called myself searching the site looking for info. I got a lot from the 18" rifle gas thread but couldn't really find anything else. If there are other threads that match mine please link them. This rifle will be my first precision rig. I want it to be good to 600 yd, that's longer than anywhere I have to shoot currently. I'm doing an 18" because I want the rifle length gas system, more fun for the wife and kids to shoot all day.
Just ordered the lower for a SPR build I have been contemplating for a while, BCM with Geissele SSA-E trigger. I think I have settled on a barrel and am going to go with Rainier Arms ultramatch 18" with rifle gas system. I'm thinking of using a Vltor MUR w/o forward assist for the upper and a BCM bcg. I still have to decide on the stock, gas block, fore end, and suppressor. Would it be productive to go with a Switchblock or similar gas block? I do plan to shoot it suppressed and unsuppressed so I would think having the ability to control the amount of gas would be beneficial. And as far as suppressors, which is a good model to run on a precision rig? I'm looking at Silencer Co's stuff and like what I'm hearing about the Omega. Still lost with fore ends, I was thinking about a 15" KMR, but I have read they won't fit over a Switchblock. And let's not even start on optics or irons yet!
