    How bad is this idea?

    Sounds like a lot of work, and when you have issues, which part do you blame? What does all this cost when you are done? I am biased, but the Cadex Kracken might be an answer.

    Thoroughbred Armament barrels ?

    There are a number of smaller shops that sell no name barrels. As a barrel nerd, personally, I know that there are a dozen or so blank makers who do a reasonable job, on the level of a Ballistic Advantage, and will provide reliable 1.5 to 3.5 MOA accuracy, which is good enough for a great many...

    Rifle length free float handguards

    Midwest might not be free floating. Lots of good options out there, some will depend upon how much Pic rail you want or need. All four sides is nice, but heavy. You might want MLOK on the sides and Pic on the top. I assume you want to keep the front sight post in place ?

    POF revolution 6.5 creedmoor - Yay or Nay

    Just check any cross compatibility. From what I have seen POF is very proprietary in barrel extension and BCG areas. If that is not a concern, go for it.

    Sig Kilo

    We have sold a good number of 6k and 10k, and my experience, and customer feedback is average on the 6K, and very good on the 10K. I have heard any complaints, that were mentioned earlier in this thread, but it happens. There are good number of choices, and price ranges. Personally, I think...

    The Barrett Mk22 suppressor is .338, and is specific to that rifle. Barrett .338 suppressor for the Mk22

    MIRS ON A M40A1

    Should not be a problem. Should look awesome. Finding the MIRS is usually the problem.

    Remington 700 prefit?

    As a rifle builder and reseller of barrels, we use Douglas for some pre-fit R-700 SA, and see no reason why they would not make a LA for you. We are not the gunsmiths, but send the prefit barrels and actions to the gunsmith, and he installs with our lug. The Douglas is chambered, crowned, and...

    .300 RUM muzzle brake suggestions

    Sort of partial to Cadex MX1. Might be a lot of brake.

    Leupold Mark 4HD vs Zeiss conquest V4

    I like Zeiss alot. Not so much the Conquest. The Leupold Mark 4HD is a good investment in quality glass. It is basically a Mark 5HD, without all the battle hardened toughness.

    Scope for a 6 ARC

    Some of those names mentioned are sound. Arken, for sure. Athlon, Vortex PST. I would add Leupold Mark 4HD. I do believe in spending a little more money on glass, especially with 6ARC. There is a reason you are shooting that round, and accuracy I bet is top of the list.

    MINIMUM BARREL LENGTHS, SUREFIRE SILENCERS

    That is sound advice. We put RC2 cans into full auto on 10.3" barrels with 0.070" gas ports.

    m24 back in stock

    So did mine, but I may have misunderstood. In the end, it does not really matter about the commercial aspects. We have a few and are going to put into a rifle case with foam cut-outs.

    Riflespeed or Superlative for running suppressed?

    Oh well. Beside the suppressor, the selection of adjustable gas blocks comes down to convenience and ease of use. Both have a very good reputation. I think Riflespeed has done a lot more to engineer a design that is both durable and easy to use.
