[QUOTE="c_bass16, post: 2636776, member: 20355"] really hate to beat a dead horse but it's been a few years since I talked about mine that I dubbed the UltraSASS. Back in about 2010 I was able to snag an Armalite AR10 upper in 300 SAUM. At the time, both the Armalite and DPMS patterns could be found, but were dying out quick. I did TONS of research prior and feel the WSM is a poor chose compared to the SAUM when referring to the large frame AR10 platform. Mine was stock with a standard 12" gas tube, no adjustable gas system and standard (I did add a Tubb Flat spring) AR10 rifle length buffer system and didn't have any feeding or cycling issues HOWEVER...it was definitely over gassed with a suppressor and it ran pretty aggressive. I was running 190 Berger VLDs right around 2900-2915 with it, and not only was it sub moa, but I took it out to a mile quite a few times. I have an old, crappy video taking my antelope in 2012 at 931yds, center punched, pssst, flop, dead. Since then, its sat on the shelf for years as I got more and more into precision bolt action rifles so right around 2020 I decided to tear it down and re-build into a 6.5 PRC. I've got it all assembled but as of date...I'm still trying to tune the feeding and cycling before I really finalize the build. I opt for an 18" hand guard instead of the 12 in this picture... a +2 gas system, adjustable gas block and I have a hand full of tungsten buffer weights to get it all tuned...and I am pretty excited to start shooting it again.
