What purpose will this rifle serve?

Just a range toy, maybe 3gun if I ever get into it

I just completed a similar project. I used this barrel http://www.bravocompanyusa.com/BCM-18-SPR-SS410-Barrel-with-Rifle-Length-Gas-p/bcm-recbrl 18ss.htm
and a Geissele AR15 Super 3 Gun trigger, I love both. For now it has a PA 1X4 scope in a LaRue mount but I do plan on upgrading the scope down the road. I still need a BCG. For now I am using the Magpul MOE rifle stock. I also bought the gasblock and gas tube from BCM they ship very fast and their products are high quality. I used a Ranier Arms XD flash hider.

Not sure which route you want to go if you want to save weight a Vltor A5 would be the way to go on the stock. I'm debating doing that, or sticking with the MOE, or going with a PRS. I mounted one rail segment toward the front of my Troy Alpha rail to eventually attach a bipod, for that I'll probably use a LaRue mount and a Harris bi-pod.

I wanted to build a SPR and basically started buying parts on Jan 17th when I saw the barrels in stock at BCM. After seeing how light the upper was with just the rail and barrel I now want to build another really light carbine with a 14.5 light weight barrel and a Troy rail.

I borrowed a bcg from another rifle (I know it's dumb to do this) to function test this setup and I shot a couple sub 1" groups with cheap Black Hills 55 gr ammo.

I borrowed a bcg from another rifle .

It's not dumb to do that.

That is going to be a great looking rig. I can't wait to see it complete.

I want to build one using seekins goodies so bad, but got other projects due first unfortunately

Alright, I just put on a couple parts I had laying around the house. Would it be bad to use a carbine stock on the rifle gas system? Or should I find a rifle stock I like.
Also, I'm Planning on using a stainless barrel like Peacemaker above. I'll probably put stainless bad ass safety levers and stainless kns trigger pins. I've been looking at ordering a WMD Nickelboron BCG to kind of stick with the black and stainless theme. Has anybody used one of those before? I just snagged a Bravo Company bcg which should ship monday. I'm hoping to use it for a different build though.
Current List of parts acquired:
-Seekins SP223 lower receiver
-Seekins iRMT-3 upper receiver
-Seekins SP^3R 15" rail
-Seekins billet magazine release
-Rainier Arms Raptor Ambidextrous Charging Handle
