So what's the specs on your ar my friend? 16-inch 1:7 chrome/moly barrel, SAA, MOE handguards, A2 front sight, MOE flip up rear, nameless BCG and CH, SAA lower, MOE stock and grip. Wanting to swap into a new barrel for more precise shooting and a butt with a tighter fit to the tube like an ACS or B5 SOPMOD. EDIT TO ADD Carbine gas Not bad! Just build a new upper. That's what I plan on doing here soon, I run a 16" 1:7 as well. I will likely be be doing a 20" at some point and make it a SPR. People have been saying to build a new upper, makes sense, more than having a bunch of spare parts laying around I could sell to buy ammo...

If you build a new upper, go to a gain twist 1:6 and you can stabilize the 90 grain bullet for 1000 yd shooting. Per AMU tests.

You can get something called a "Bobsled" which allows you to feed the extra long cartridges one at a time. (Obviously not a "tactical" item) http://originalbobsled.com/

The faster twist, in theory, should stabilize heavier bullets.
