[QUOTE="c_bass16, post: 867696, member: 20355"] The number of makers that do proprietary stuff with the "large frame" AR's is pretty extensive since there is no "mill spec standard" so to speak. The AR10, LR308, SR25, LAR-8 are the ones that come to mind first. Of all the models to choose from...these are the ones I would consider brand specific for parts. Just about everything else will mate up to one of these 4. The Armalite rolls with the likes of Noveske compatibility but they have offered a 2nd model option for use with DMPS/SR25 Mags...the uppers are stil only going to run on Armalite/Noveske The LR308 I would consider to be the most common platform. 95% of companies that make a billet lower, design it for the LR308 style uppers. The SR25 is kind of a hybrid. It has the appearance of the Armalite, but the guts of the DPMS. (actually DPMS has KAC guts, but that's not the point) And the LAR-8 is just all kinds of proprietary and I don't know what fits it. For the caliber choice you've got...you're going to have a hard time finding someone build it for you, and I wish you luck. It's going to be expensive and I would highly doubt that the one man I know of with experience doing the build, will actually build one to those specs...but as I said...good luck with the project. And just to clarify...what do you consider "extended ranges" and what do you feel the 7mmSAUM and 28+ barrel will do to help you achieve that kill shot? [/QUOTE]
