Ok. I’m at a mental crossroad.lol
I Have thought about a 11.5 vs 12.5 for a while now.

Pretty dead set on a 12.5 (556). I don’t want stainless this time around, want a CL/hammer forged deal

Now stuck on who from and carbine or mid length gas
Rather not run a adj block on this if I don’t have to, but I use pmc to hot 556

I know some here use this length. Looking for some first hand info on how it is in terms of a reliable/soft shooter etc.. xx

Looking at

Triarc (middy -in stock)
Centurion (carbine -in stock)
Criterion (Carbine-in stock)
BRT (exc or whatever gas system, in between carbine and middy)

Stuck, will be just an upper for now and will have a Yhm T2 on it all the time.
