I need to get some time and get the baby zeroed and run it out and see what she'll do.

Rifle is definitely a pig but I don't plan on having to hump this thing.

Re: Finally got a precision AR together

Truly professional build pal....really nice to see a rifle that hasn't had any corners cut or pennies pinched. Buy once, cry once:)

Now on another note, why go with a 20" barrel....personally I can't think of a single thing that a 20" 5.56 barrel can do that either a 18", or 16" 5.56 barrel can't do. The MV difference b/t my Recce and SPR is less than 100fps, and that 100fps doesn't even translate into even the smallest gain I've noticed until I get well past 600-700yds, where the 18" SPR bucks the wind slightly better.

Congrats!

Those URX 3.1's are really slick, everything you need and nothing you don't. I would love to do a very similar build.
 
Re: Finally got a precision AR together

thanks guys,

i went with the 20" because it would have been extremely close to not fitting with the suppressor
 
Re: Finally got a precision AR together

Don't let it hear you refer to it as a "pig".

She is just big boned.

Nice rifle and sweet scope.

Good luck.

Re: Finally got a precision AR together

Damn you have some nice looking rifles. I used an 18" SAM-R bbl. in my SPR build, and it is a tack drive when I do my part.

I had one and got rid of it for that reason. My Crusader with the OPS3rd is probably close to 15lbs loaded
 
Re: Finally got a precision AR together

Nice, my favorite when heading into the boonies is still the 20, though have barrels 10.5 to 24"---definitely a 1st class build!
 
Re: Finally got a precision AR together

Very nice build. If your SAM-R shoots anything like the ones I've had, you will not be disappointed. What I liked most about them was that they held their accuracy and point of impact pretty darned well, even when smoking hot.

If I remember right, I shot this group with a SAM-R build.

It was the end of the day and my last 20 rounds. The barrel was already hot and I ran the last 20 rounds in under a minute. The target circle is 1" in diameter. I threw a few out. I was having a hard time with the 10X scope, but you get the idea. This was shot with a smoking hot barrel at 100 yards.
 
Re: Finally got a precision AR together

Hats off to you sir, very nice looking builds. What twist rate did you go with, 1:7 ...1:8? Id like for a precision upper to be my next serious buy. Haven't settled on whether I would like to stay in the the 223wylde/556 or move on to a new caliber. Running a fairly accurate rock river chomemoly 16" . I look forward to hearing what accuracy you're able to get out of that build.
