Just need a bunch of ammo

Get a good trigger. Rock river 2 stage are nice and decent price.

You reload?

I do not reload as of yet, but considering the price, I believe I may! Just an idiot to all this as of now! Still need much research. I want the magpul PRS stock, but not at that price, I am considering a skeleton stock for now.

I will look into the RRA trigger, heard that before.

And **** that .22 I was admiring, dude still has it for sale. I wonder why.

Haha thats funny.

Ive put several RRA 2 stage triggers in and they are nice for what they are.
Im runnin Jard 2 stage adjustables in most my ARs but they can be picky if your use to shooting a bolt action.

I really like the magpul MOE stock, simple, cheap but comfortable. Dont spend the extra on the CTR, the lock wears out after awhile and you end up having a CTR thats the same as a MOE.

Ive been loading alot of the blemished hornady 110gr bthp and they work perfect for deer and hogs. Also tried 110gr Vmax with good results but they cost more.
110gr sierra prohunters are popular, just not violent enough for me. 85gr barnes are wicked but way to expensive for me.

Do you know what twist barrel? And is it spec II chamber?

.The upper consists of a 16'' 6.8SPC barrell W/M-4 Ext.ITS 9310 Alloy Superbolt and YHM 12'' Diamond forearm

Pretty sure 1:11.25. I did not build it, bought used on another forum. I want a fixed style stock. This will only be used for hunting and occasional range time. Maybe a skeleton style?

I forgot all about the deal PSA was having, ****! Already purchased a Spikes. Timney is a little over my budget.

I had really good luck with the factory combat triggers in a few of my ARs. JP springs in and threaded a set screw where the grip screw goes. Set it with the pretravel you want. Grind the top of the trigger bar till the safety will engage with some friction.
Dunno what weight it is but its a ton better than what it was. And for $20 its well worth it.

That gun is still for sale...and to think, for "just $20" he could have sold it to me.

I received notice that my upper will be here friday, as well as my headers, and it's my 5th year anniversary.

Thinking about buying PSA trigger and send it to Bill Springfield, or there is a guy local to me too.
