I love mine. If you have the coin and the patience, a Satern barrel is the way to go.

What an awesome rig! Im completely jealous! Hopefully this will be a build for me in the future!

Alex arms has a bolt barrel combo for I believe 350? Maybe less. That what's I'm gonna buy. What type of buffer do you guys like with the 6.5?

I'm boycotting this thread because it is not about the vastly inferior 6.8 SPC.

Really wish you would do your homework. Your experience with the 6.8 is old...much like your info.

Now. Now. Dont read into it like that. I just get tired of reading his posts bashing the 6.8. It wasnt developed to be a long distance round. It was developed for use in SBR length weapons since the 5.56 has a tendency to perform "less than optimally" in SBR length. I think the 6.5 sounds like it is a awesome long range round but I have no use for it at the moment.

Come on, really? That's your approach? That's how you state an opposing viewpoint? Christ, here we go...

At least its been over a year since anybody sicced the 6.8SPCFORUMS crowd on us.

Thats not the approach I used and didnt suggest the forums to you. If you want manufacturers info, I could give that to you. You might have to read it and apply the info instead of being "spoon fed." Now I know why so many people get so "biased."
I dont want ANYONE to start shooting 6.8 or to convert anyone to the round. Educate yourself and be honest with the type of shooting you will do. I am honest with myself and the 6.8 fills my needs.
I believe you guys prefer the 6.5 and I have heard good things about it. I just wouldnt refer to "outdated" info to try to make something I like sound superior. Then again, I am not trying to "Jim Jones" anyone either.

Coincidence, I think not. I understand why you guys might prefer the 6.5 and the same opinion when it comes to certain things.

Please enlighten me.

Because I have seen the previous posts that people have made regarding their affinity towards the 6.5 and this is an "6.5" posting also. I dont expect to find anyone one touting the 6.8 but didnt expect anyone to "bash" it in an unrelated thread.
