Looking for some parts recommendations for a fairly accurate AR-10 in 6.5 CM build

[steves86ta]

Hi All,

Long story short, i came across a deal on a large frame receiver set that i couldn't pass up. (FYI Aero Precision has Skag-10 sets on clearance for 199)

I already have an ar-10 'battle rifle' in 308 that is my 'play' rifle if you will. And didn't want another 308.

After finding a stainless heavy Ballistic Advantage 24" 6.5 CM barrel on clearance I decided i wanted to do another 'long' range build. I got out of F-Class about 6 months ago and I'd like to go back and hang out with the guys and have something that can do okay at 1k and 600y (my ar-10 in 308 does okay but have to push it really hard as it's a 20" and we have electronic targets).
I don't want to be competitive anymore but just want something to have fun with. And i know from experience the 6.5 makes it a little easier.

Currently i have:

skag-10 upper/lower receivers
skag-10 handguard
BA 24" 6.5 CM barrel
Superlative Arms Adjustable Gas Block and melonited gas tube.
Magpul PRS gen 3 Adjustable stock
CMMG lpk W/Ambi Safety (will not use the trigger)

I am looking for recommendations for the following:

BCG - Im leaning towards the toolcraft double ejector high pressure (6.5) bolt - open to other suggestions.
Buffer system - not sure what to go with here, a conventional buffer system? The JP Silent Captured setup? I'm not sure here.
Trigger - I have had good luck with CMC match triggers, also looking at a Geissele National Match setup
Tuner - I have used the EC tuners in the past so am leaning towards an EC v2 with adapter. But was wondering if there were other options. (note no brakes allowed where i shoot)

Thanks in advance!

Contact Heavy Buffers after you know the rest of your setup, if I remember right the guy you want is Clint.

These are really nice 2 stage triggers if you want to try something different.

I have the Geisslee NM triggers in all of my AR 10s and 15s. I actually run the middle DMR spring and bend the legs of the trigger spring slightly for a lighter first stage. This allows me the approach the wall and get a good feel without getting a bit to heavy and the trigger breaking. They are excellent triggers. I won't use anything else. Mine all break at about 2 3/4 pounds.
