BN36 AR Platform 30-06

[Wes B]

I am slow on the uptake, evidently these have been around for about a year or so.

Does anyone have, shot one, or know someone who has one?

I am interested just for the sake that it is a long action AR.
Ok, that and it would be nice if it means down the road an upper in 6.5 swede.

I'd never expect a swede, but a 6.5-06 could be had I'll bet.
Be tough to get past performance of a 270 with nosler accubonds.
Would love to have one.

I'd like a BN36 CAR in 35 Whelen.

I think I remember seeing a post on AR15.com about one. I think he'd only ordered it at the time though and didn't have it in hand at the time of the post. Looks like a beast. It's got the size of anti-material platform but only shoots anti-personnel rounds.

Nice! I wonder if I can get a barrel for it in 7x57!

Does anyone know what this platform does that will make it succeed where other LA platforms have failed? And are the magazines proprietary and ridiculously expensive?

I don't recall which forum I found this on or when it was posted, but at some point magazines were around $60. This could have been a year ago though.

6.5x55 or 6.5-06
Hard decision to make. I have never shot either one, just have a strong hankering for a swede in a new action / rifle.
