Bet it works pretty good.
Your existing .223 can will work with a .204 As to the noise issue, in bolt rifles I've thought the noise level was very similar un-suppressed. I love shooting suppressed rifles, that should be a good setup if you build your 204AR.
If you are reloading, might look at Tac20. 223 brass almost free.

I really like the idea of a 20 Practical or 20 Tactical because you can use Lapua 223 brass which nearly lasts forever and if I wasn't so cheap I'd have one of my 223's rebarreled to 20 Practical but I really want another CZ 527 just need to figure out how I can slip it by "The Warden" without her noticing.
Re-barreling the 527 is pretty easy too.
Quote from: jay.sharkbait on December 21, 2016, 11:44:52 AM Re-barreling the 527 is pretty easy too.I'd imagine it's a pretty straight forward process, as long as you have a lathe that can cut metric threads. James Calhoon is kind of a CZ 527 specialist and he told me, how they come right from the factory is pretty darn good and typically doesn't have to do much to them at all.
You had me right up until you said barrel nut. I appreciate their function and they definitely serve their purpose and have their place, it's just that place won't ever be on any of my guns. lol
You guys hi-jack away . Anyone ever part out an AR ? Now I might just sell off the stuff I don't want ( everything except upper/lower receivers) and buy different. Not sure how to price the old stuff. What's your thoughts ?Troy FF rail , DPMS barrel , 6 position stock ( everythings been used for 10 shots ) B23 I was just researching the 20 Practical

What I want to do is change out the 7" rail for a 13" rail , but the gas block on the rifle now has a picattinney rail on top of it that's flush with the handguard rail. Am I right in thinking I just need to order a lo-profile gas block ?
