    Newb from CA

    Hello all! Ive lurked around the hide here in and off for a few years, but all my rifles were standard AR 5.56 carbine types with no real application beyond 300 meters so I never felt like I should register. I've always been more concerned with minute of man accuracy than making nice tight...
