    Iron Ridge Arms .308 lowers...

    This is their first run and boy does it look great. Have anyone received one of their Armalite lowers yet? Now we have been called the "guinea pigs" for their prototype... Now usually being a guinea pig is not a good thing... Dave mentioned they may have to adjust this or that by 10,000ths...

    Re: Shortest barrel length I can get away with on .308 Hmm. Well I would assume those that are using 18" and hitting 1000 yards are much more skilled than I am... So would a 20" make a world of difference for me? Does an extra 2" really help? Or would I have to go as long as 22"?

    Shortest barrel length I can get away with on .308

    What is the shortest barrel I can get away with on a .308 to still get the most out of the round and be able to run all the way out to 1000 yards? 16"? 20"? I really dont want to go longer than 20" if I dont have to... and would like to go shorter unless it dramatically affects the...
