What is a 6.5 Creedmoor Upper Receiver?

The 6.5 Creedmoor upper receiver is an upper receiver designed to fit on an AR-10 rifle, as its cartridges are too long to fit on the standard AR-15.

What is the average recoil of an AR-10 with a 243 Winchester Upper?

The average recoil of a 243 Winchester upper receiver, is 17-18 foot-pounds. This is above of the 15-16 foot-pound recoil of a typical 308 WIN AR10. However, the higher recoil is consistent with the similar projectile weights and higher muzzle velocity of 6.5 Creedmoor compared to 308 WIN.

Will the 6.5 Creedmoor Upper fit my Lower?

Unlike AR15, the AR10/LR308 platform is not standardized, so not every upper will fit every lower. We offer 6.5 Creedmoor uppers with either DPMS Gen 1 or Aero Precision M5 Upper Receivers. This covers the vast majority of lowers, but there are some exceptions so if you have any questions, contact our support team at 866.706.0633 or [email protected].
