AR-15 BS Thread

1 moa should be the starting point when talking bolt guns. I’ve achieved quarter moa at 100 yards with my A-bolt. Haven’t shot it in years so I haven’t gone past 100.

 

Larue needs to have a sale. They made a few bad decisions on AR15 dot com.

 

Oh REALLY?

 

No idea. You’ll have to look around. I don’t know much about AR-10s.

 

If interested google is your friend.

 

I can’t do the lower. I’m not a FFL so I technically can’t.

 

Handguards are good!

 

Sounds good!

 

Well atleast give us a hint what to look for...

 

Yeah it's not going to be a rifle that gets tons of rounds fired through it. I want to get into reloading at some point but not for a little while.

So Im torn between 18 and 20" barrel lengths. Going to go with a 1:8 twist. Going to be either o ff of these Bear creek uppers:

Or this Sanders:

Still need to do more reading. Mostly about barrel and bcg materials and coatings

 

Yah i dont want to buy garbage but i can't find much in the $500 to$600 range

 

Maybe i should just order a can cannon

 

Not trying to be a downer but any quality rifle ammo starts around $1 per round unless it’s .223/5.56 then you can get it a little cheaper. Long gone are the days of quality $10 per box good ammo or even $10 bricks of .22

 

Huh?

 

Trying to develop your own load, they make little blue pills to help with that.

 

Didnt find much for Grendel on psa. They have a great deal on a 6.5 creedmore upper though.

I saw some pistol caliber stuff there that would be pretty fun. Maybe a 45acp ar15 rifle (dont want a pistol, might try to SBR it eventually)

 

Anybody have experience with karri guns? I'm thinking about ordering a 16" ar15 upper in 9mm but mixed reviews have me worried.

I really can't make up my mind

 

@Adventurer_Alex here are some decent Grendel deals: http://graniteridgeoutfitters.com/65-Grendel_c109.htm

 

Maybe someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't it look like the charging handle will contact the cheek riser on that stock if you have it in the collapsed position? Depending on what length of pull you like, it might be a pain to have to extend the stock to charge the rifle and then readjust it everytime. I tend to keep mine extended abit and only collapse them for storage, but everyone has their preference. If you like your stock long then I don't think it'll be an issue- just something I noticed.

 

I saw that too!

@scottalot I like the OD color.
