    Newbie building an ar

    With the wealth of knowledge on AR15.com, to include picture step-by-step guides in the Build It Yourself section, and your given background working with firearms, I'd say build it. You'll be much more satisfied in the end from it. I've done quite a bit of research over there before buying the...

    Need help picking an AR15 Barrel

    I've read great things about Noveske barrels at AR15.com. I purchased a Noveske RECON 16.1" barrel for use on an upper build. It's a little pricey, and right now, most places are out of stock. I found mine at Tier One Arms (tieronearms.com).

    new Remington 5R????

    I agree with skeeter. If you are reloading, I would look at load data for 168 and 175. Military shoots M118LR in the M24 SWS and IIRC they are 168's.

    What dies should I buy? Newbie here

    Agree with everything said. I went the LEE route myself. Had one of the primer punches break on me. Contacted Lee and they sent me a new one, overnight, free of charge. They carry a lifetime warranty on their products from my understanding with them.

    PTG "bolt in" BDL DBM for Remington SA?

    I ordered mine last week and was told to allow 4 weeks. Luckily I'm on deployment, so I won't have to stress over waiting for it to be delivered. I bought the flush SA with 5rnd mag, and an extra 10rnd mag.

    Remington 700 DBM for Bell & Carlson stock

    Re: Remington 700 DBM for Bell & Carlson stock From my understanding, pretty much any of the DBMs out there will fit the B&C stock, you'll just have to modify the stock some. Personally I'm looking at the Seekins DBM Or the Badger Ordnance DBM. I like the look of the Seekins, but haven't...

    Re: Shooting Mat with carrier Just to throw another option in for you if you haven't bought one yet.. I have the blackhawk shooting mat/case. It folds out completely to a mat, and has buckles on the inside to buckle your rifle in. Comes with backpack straps as well. I love it...

    Pullup Routine?

    Re: Pullup Routine? Like others have said, lots of pullups. I do 5 in every circuit set I do. Mix in chin ups, and other styles of pull ups and you'll be fine. I also like the pyramid plan in circuit fashion (starting at 10 go down, exercises I do are: 50-70lb kettlebell swings, pushups...
