For this one I was going with a Wilson Combat AR10 carbine spring, Slashes’ extra heavy 6.5 oz buffer and a full mass carrier. I have used slashes buffers for most of my projects to slow down the bolt speed. Has been great in my suppressed setups. To be fair, my main rifles are rifle length systems, heavy buffers, with adjustable gas blocks, and tuned to suppressor use. They have all ran great unsuppressed, though. My worry here is that a carbine length .308 SBR would have a janky dwell time without a heavy enough buffer. Reasons I’m here lol. I don’t really mess with SBRs and I like the additional knowledge.

I’m doing a 12.5” carbine length. My goal is for this to run well suppressed and unsuppressed, be reliable, and not beat the crap out of itself. It’s gonna stay in the experimental state until I feel like it’s proven it’s to be reliable for carry. I run the piss out of all my runs so if it can’t keep up, back to the safe till I can get it right. 😂

I like that. To be fair, I’m planning on running a flow through so it should run quite well on a non adjustable.

Absolutely brother. You running fixed or adjustable gas blocks? Every 10 I own has superlative arms adjustables.

I like it. I appreciate it brother. Gonna end up doing an 8.6 Blk and a 12.5” .308 upper at the same time. Two different types of short hate and discontent.

So, I’m looking at doing a .308 12.5-13” SBR. Just wondering who all has done this and what parts were used as far as gas tube length, buffers, and what luck y’all are having with what ammo and such. Mine will be suppressed with a HuxWrx flow through. I’ll end up putting hand loads in it. Just getting a feel for y’all’s most reliable setups.

Nice. Not surprising at all. 😎💪.

Hell yeah! I have a AAC Titan QD for mine and she is a sweet beast. I don’t get to stretch her past 1000m very much in the south, but she drops hogs for me on the regular.

Man I think mine with suppressor is that much. Without… maybe 27 pounds. I’m a big dude so I don’t really notice. I just know my setup is a honey to shoot suppressed or unsuppressed and I’ll shoot it unsupported regularly.

BigNate, what length barrel are you running on your 8.6? I’m looking at starting a 12.5 or 14.5 suppressed folder setup. 8.6 Subs have caught my attention the last several months and I’m finally gonna drop the coin on a simple, well built, but effective setup. Thanks for your input. Cheers

That’s honestly pretty quick. Impressive. My .338 LM is heavy and simple lol. It’s my go to bolt gun. Ruger Precision Magnum with mods.

Yeahhhhh that’s probably going on my .416. I’m interested. I saw the cost and honestly… if it’s that quality, it’s not that costly a piece of equipment.

It looks it. I’m used to running Badger Ord and Spuhr on all my stuff. Are the adjustments for the big knob smooth or tactile clicks?

Wow. Man I’m pretty with it in all shooting communities, but I’ve never remotely seen that. That’s wicked. Thanks for the reply!

So low, medium, or high power variable and what are we talking price wise? I push most towards Primary Arms optics and the Vortex Strike Eagle line when keeping it under $1000.00. I’ve beat the tar out of both and tested the optics being driven around in a patrol rack for days on end. Zero issues.

What on earth is this? My .416 Barrett and my Armalite .50 are asking. I’ve NEVER seen a mount like that for ELR… that’s rad.

Honestly just the calibers and extra reliability. They are fun to build. Everyone messes with 15s. 10s are quirky and amazing at the same time. I have 4 fully built SR25 pattern rifles as well as various .308 battle rifles, but the two I grab the most are my OG DPMS LR308 24” or my DPMS GII LR308 24”. I don’t have much $$$ wrapped up in either, but they just work and maintain great accuracy out to 600m. They get fed 168 TAP and they are like laser rifles. Cheers.
