Technically not group builds, but more of a "Group Opportunity".

I am building some medium bore AR-10 (DPMS pattern) uppers in unusual calibers such as .338F, .358W, 9.3x51 and maybe .375x51.

I have 5 barrel inserts ($45 each), a source on quality SS barrel blanks @ $140 delivered (or less), a dealer buddy for reasonably priced upper part and a very reasonable gunsmith machinist.

SO WHY OFFER???

... the efficiency/cost savings here is in sharing the cost of reamers (buy or rental), group shipping, group machining etc. It is always cheaper to do 5 of one thing (per) than just a one off.

R700 bolt barrels (in some of these calibers) will be done at the same time... as well as .458SOCOM and .500Beowulf

PM if you have any interest... we will go from there. I am selling NOTHING, just offering knuckleheads like myself a chance to join in on the cost savings.

We will probably also do .308 at the same time.

Lowers are not part of this. Plan to use Aero Precison uppers on my builds.
