Actually, I'm of the belief that if you own an AR, you should also own an M1 Garand. Assuming of course you have years in .mil

That custom Varmint rig looks amazing. How's it shoot, who did the work? </div></div>

I did the work. It hovers around the 1/2 MOA mark. Here is a target of the load development that I was doing. I believe the load I went with was 40 Gr Nosler Ballistic Tip with 26 gr of Varget. I'm in the process of moving and don't have my book on hand. For an older Remington 700 VLS .22-250 barrel that I was the second owner, I personally put around 790 rounds through, then cut the chamber off and made it into a .223 AR barrel, I'm pretty happy!

I graduate Wednesday from Montgomery Community College in Troy, NC with an Associates Degree in Gunsmithing. I have been doing a lot of projects for my school syllabus, but I dont have my own shop or anything yet. I'm working on that.

Same in the UK....22LR semi or straight pull bolt centrefires only.

Gun Control only penalises the law-abiding shooter. The crazies and criminals will kit up regardless..........

I think it was one of your guys from across the pond who said that there are two things you can never have enough of....money and ammunition.

I'd certainly add guns to that list!

Nice collection. Where did you find a 22-250 barrel in 1:12 twist? It must have been pretty old. All current Rem. barreled 22-250 seem to be 1:14 twist.

You may have got me on that one. I did the standard cleaning rod with tight patch through the barrel and measured how far it took to make one full revolution. It was 2 years ago, maybe my memory has let me down.

ARs were my first love and will never get old!

I got kind of bored with them about a year back, then found and bought an Addax Gas Piston Upper.

Talk about breathing new life into the system!!

Wow that thing is smoothe and fast. Absolutely perfect!!!!

forgive the crappy pic, only one I have right now in its current config.

I have two LMT CQB MRP Defender gas piston AR's. One is setup as a medium range rifle and the other for CQB/short range. I do my best to keep as much ammo loaded as possible because it's really easy to burn through it with these!
