[Carbine Dioxide]

Buddy has a 5.56 OBR and I want to know where it stands in the AR pecking order.

For cost, at the top end of the spectrum. From what I hear, accuracy, reliability, durability and quality of components, at the top of the spectrum too.

What makes it so good? How does it fare according to "the chart"?

From what I understand they use better composition metals, proprietary parts, their receivers have 10 MOA built in to their railed upper, high end trigger (Geissele). Long in the short, everything that a typical AR is lacking, they aren't, and they improved on many of the components and functions of the AR with high end parts and solutions. They build these rifles for extreme conditions and reliability.

The chart! The chart basically spells out what the basic minimum military requirements are for the AR. Any high end operation will far exceed those minimum standards in "the chart".
People are way too hung up on mil-spec in my opinion.
