Yes I'm already looking ahead... Why? Well because I can!
Though it will probably be next spring before I start I need to do my home work in the mean time. I have one more spare lower and would like to build a DMR/SPR type rifle with a 18-20 inch barrel. Originally I was just going to go 5.56 because its cheaper to shoot but I'm yerning for something different.
My original thought was 6.8 SPCII , then the AAC 300 popped up and I've also read into to the 6.5 a bit. Anyone know the difference between the 6.5 Grendel and 6.5 Creedmoor or can explain if there is one? I'm not sure what yardage I want to shoot out to. If I make special trips I can go to a range out to 1000 yards but that won't be often. Thats ok because between ammo cost and range axcess I won't rack up alot of shooting with it like my other AR(s). This is more of a speciality build for me. So please enlighten me on the choices I'm looking at. The more info the better. Feel free to make your replies as long as you want. Theres no such thing as too much information in my book and I love to read and learn. Thats alot of why I'm on here!
PS no I haven't tried search yet... But I will eventually!
