Cool looking gun, hope it shoots well for ya.
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.

thats almost the same set up as mine i love this rifle, mines the 22 inch and my nikon is the buckmacter 3x9. i just got back from the range where i worked up a good reload for that thing. 3/4 group at 200 yards. i think that'll do  :tup:

Well had it out to the range today.  It performed very well.  We brought a bore sighter with us but just for grins decided to see where it was right out of the box with a new scope.  We were on paper at 30 yards,  after a couple adjustments we were in the black on the third bullet.  Moved out to 100 yards and had it grouping in the black by the tenth bullet.  It was a foggy day at the range and although it was tempting to burn through the hundred rounds I had with me, I settled on 2" groups with bulk 55gr V-max reloads.  This is my first AR and I am hooked, everything about this rifle just feels solid and intuitive, pretty happy with it.  :IBCOOL:
