    Anybody built an AR10 style rifle using a PSA10 Lower and upper? Please talk about your experience (good or bad). Considering going this build route for an AR10 style rifle. Thanks.

    I bought two sets when Bollingers did their group buy last year...have not built them out yet, but will more than likely be going either 6.5 Creedmoor or possibly a heavy metal 3 gun build in 308...will let you know how it goes when I actually get started....

    There has been some chatter about the uppers being out of spec. My understanding is the lowers are actually Aero, which I have and are fine.

    I am going to hold out a while but at some point I am hoping to replace my current DPMS upper with a Palmetto if they ever make a reasonably light weight rail with a 20" barrel.

    In the process of collecting pieces for an AR10 on a PSA upper and lower set (purchased separately but seem to fit together very well).

    I too have heard about PA10 upper "issues" but no specifics.

    FWIW - I am looking at picking up this barrel (http://faxonfirearms.com/18-heavy-fluted-308-win-mid-length-416-r-stainless-steel-qpq/) for the build and, if the OP doesn't mind, would like to keep it in this thread as it pertains to PSA AR10 builds.

    I had initially been looking at the Black Hole Weaponry barrel (http://www.shop.blackholeweaponry.com/308-Win-308B-caliber-18-length-AR10-308-18.htm) as well as the Rainier Select 308 (http://www.rainierarms.com/rainier-arms-selecttm-308-barrel-18-ss)

    There have been some reports, Ill admit I have been erring on cautious. Though I really do want one of their 20" builts to replace my overly heavy DPMS AP4 upper.
