Does anyone have any experience with YHM equipment? Their complete rifles are a bit pricey for me, I have a lower I can mate with an upper. I've been keepin my I open for a high quality upper in 6.8 spc and may have found a good deal on one from Yankee Hill. Quality and accuracy in a 16" barrel is what I'm shootin for. I was set on gettin a complete Rock River in the new Coyote Carbine until finding the possible deal on the YHM upper. Fyi... $1000 for the RRA, 3/4" moa.

Thanks for the help and info.

I use the Yankee Hill Float Tubes on my AR Uppers and i like them. Here is another place to get a 6.8 upper. I'm getting ready to order one their barrels in 6.8 and will use a Yankee Hill tube on this built. They are out of the M4 barrel but said they have a shipment coming in about two weeks. I'm building the 6.8 so i can deer hunt with one of my AR'S. This one will be on a LEFT HAND Stag upper.

What do you call a deal? IE what cost on the upper?

Especially considering that a good barrel is around 280.....

Are you asking me or the original poster?

I have not had a complete gun by YHM but do have 3 lowers and a lower/upper on my lightweight and am more than happy with all.
A complete upper for less than 600 sounds to be a good deal, would depend on what barrel is used and the twist.

good luck with the build

SpecII 1-10 twist YHM. Don't know who actually makes their barrels.(I know the twist is not ideal)
