I apologize for the prior semi rude statement. It was out of context. I posted it off my phone (which didn't load any replies or my own actual reply)

I have handled one of the NEMO 300 Win. Mag AR's and man are they a beauty to hold, if I had $6K I'd have one! I like the Troy and Centurion Rails, but I don't like the clamp on rail. I fear I'd some how knock it off center. I like the rail that mounts by I believe bolting onto the barrel nut (?) It has a weird spider-clamp on thing. I think its by Lake Machine? I don't know exactly what its called but I think it looks WICKED!

What are other rail manufacturers? I want something sleek, I'd like a monolithic upper but I think Mega discontinued them unless your a serious dealer. So Mega it is for my receivers.

Where I shoot range distance is from the top of a break; I remember correctly we can see around 6 miles from the top. I target shoot from their. When I pig shoot I'm usually on the top of a piece of parked machinery, or on foot. I don't particularly like to trek through Mesquite thickets to find them we use the vast expanses of farm land so we can see quite a ways off. So I don't need to worry about the forward assist, but what about my other parts selections?

Admin. if this is in the wrong board please correct it to the right place. Alright, as the above title says. This Summers "Summer Project" is to build an AR-10 type rifle. First A little history on me; I am into long range shooting (750+ yards if I can see it with my naked eye its to close). I have never owned a 308/7.62X51 caliber. Although I do use a 300 WM, and use a 223 quite often. I am a target shooter more than a hunter, but I occasionally shoot hogs for local farmers to rid them of the nuisance creatures. This build I intend to be a gun I use for the rest of my life, so no second rate parts; the best (within reason, not Titanium) is what I'll use to build it. This will be a long-range hunting and target build. I want serious accuracy. From other peoples references I am leaning towards a Mega MATEN ambi. receiver set; However their are other manufacturers that have a slight edge in my opinion: an SI Defense matched set, or possibly an Armalite if parts will lineup. But as with anything that requires me spending a great deal of money I have done some research on the above manufacturers and have read nothing bad about any one of them. (Besides minor parts fit discrepancies, can't make everybody happy right?) But I will more than likely use a Bartlein or Krieger barrel as their current specs. hold true to sub MOA. (Or another barrel manufacturer depending upon yalls opinions.) A BCG from the manufacturer of the barrel or whomever yall say produces the best one, a Giselle 2 stage trigger, a MAGPUL stock ,a RISR from Larue Tactical, and a forend from either YHM or another manufacturer. (I prefer to have rail, or be able to add rail sections to add a bipod/forward grip. I can always get rail covers) What worries me is that with a 308 AR pattern rifle is having a forward assist necessary? I keep all of my firearms cleaned, and maintained, so is having a forward assist necessary to the 308 platform? The MEGA upper is void of the forward assist which bothers me, but if it is not necessary no worries. I ask for yall honest opinions on what I have selected and please if you feel that I am incorrect tell me, you won't hurt my feelings any. This is intended to be my summer project, their is a budget, but its not going to be a "budget build". The honest best parts are what I like. That way I'm not replacing anything later, and they are true and well made. -Haystack
