Buffer kit?

[robert829]

Hi guys!! I'm in the process of completing my AR10 6.5
Creedmoor and still deciding which buffer kit to use.
22 inch barrel +2 rifle length tube, standard gas block,
JP FMOS BCG.. Its a bench rifle and prolly use factory load..I have the carbine stock tube from aero precision.
(also use aero upper and lower) Should I just get their buffer kit or is there anything out there works better?
Any recommendations which buffer weight or a reliable
Tube springs combinations? Any brand ?
Thanks and I appreciate all the help.

I started with the AP carbine buffer kit also but was having carrier strikes at the rear of the receiver. I try several different combo but ended up with a KAK 5.8 oz carbine buffer and a Sprinco Orange carbine buffer spring.

I used a SLR Rifleworks adjustable gas block, Dark Hour Defense 13 position B5 receiver extension, tape strips to take out the slack, H3 buffer, and Armalite EA1095 spring.

The 13 position receiver extension allows finer adjustments, and this is the buffer configuration Eugene Stoner chose for carbine stocked SR25s.

I used the carbine stock setup because an A1 length of pull works better for me, large frame ARs have an extra 5/8" of metal behind the pistol grip, and fixed stocks 1 1/4" shorter than A2 length are scarce.
