1 in 7 10.5 556 upper

he's right when he says they've got some quality control issues in their past. just google.

its a budget priced product, so that savings has to come from somewhere - usually either in material quality, or in the QC department, sometimes both.

that doesnt mean they dont produce a good product much of the time, but like many other things in the firearms world - you do often get what you pay for.





that said since its a 1:7 twist, i'd lean towards heavier offerings (>55gr) to take advantage of that fast twist rate.

are you a reloader? or only shoot factory ammo?
what do you plan to use the upper for? hunting? range toy?

that will help folks give you someplace to start at least.
 
I shoot a Noveske 10.5” with a 1 in 7 twist. Go heavy on the bullet, mine really likes the black hills 69grain otm. The heavy the better on fast twist. Gonna try some 70 grain gmx soon.
