    Not very good choices.....they are not pro-grade weapons.....sort of "consumer grade."
    I'd prolly pick RR if I had to pick one because their CS has been very good to me.

    Bravo company manufacturing (BCM) or Daniel defense or Spikes. Best bang for your buck IMHO. Currently own BCM, DD, Stag, Colt and Smith and Wesson.

    I bought this today while I was on a conjugal visit with my PSD. I like the SN its like it knew what I was going to do to it. I know its not marked LWRCI like most of my stuff lately, but it will most likely have one of their uppers on top of it, or it will have an AAC upper. This will most likely be my .300Blk dedicated SBR. Going to send off the Form 1 on it Monday and build it while I wait.

    I am saving up for a DPMS Sportical. $709 locally. (support your local armory)

    From what I've found on the internets, its a pretty good starter AR.
    I'd probably like to add some flip sights, and that's it (for now).

    What say the collective?

    "Metal Cased" means nothing...lead, steel, copper - obviously all metal.

    Full Metal Jacket usually means a lead core inside a complete copper jacket.

    Copper Clad or Copper Coated like bullets from Rainier means a very thin copper coating, usually done in an electrolysis-like procedure similar to coating something in chrome. This is a very thin coating, and bullets that are copper clad should be treated like lead bullets when reloading, i.e., lower velocity, expanding the case mouth before seating, etc.

    If I saw Metal Cased, I would assume they're not talking about the bullet, but rather they mean Steel Cased, as in a steel casing and not brass. You see steel cased ammo in a lot of Euro import ammo and economical loads like CCI Blazer pistol ammo and Hornady training rifle ammo.

    Hope that makes sense and maybe even helps a bit.
