[QUOTE="SteelBanger, post: 2122782, member: 112192"] Man this has been a great thread! I also want to build a new upper with the primary purpose being shooting steel out to 600 yards, secondary as a yote killer, and lastly, potentially a hog killer since a buddy and I keep talking about finding a place to go on a hog hunt. I had built an AR-10 in 6.5 Creedmoor for this purpose but that thing is so dang heavy I never want to take it out so I plan to sell it and get something nearly as capable but in the AR-15 platform. I had originally thought the 6 ARC might be a good fit and it probably would do the job even on hogs, but you guys have all but sold me on the grendel, which would likely get an 18" barrel. I'm also intrigued by the various .223 case wildcats such as the 6x45 and really a 6.5 wildcat using the 223 case. I have 1000 .223 cases on order from Starline and using a couple hundred of those for a new wildcat is tempting. [/QUOTE]
