Nice set up.  I picked up the DPMS sweet 16.  I placed a Nikon BDC scope on it and it is a tack driver.  Fun to shoot.
Cut em!
It's not the shells!  It's the shooter!

Nice looking AR.
I'm surprised no one has said anything about how its illegal to shoot over the hood of a rig in WA.

when shooting off the hood, a blanket or jacket down to keep from powder burning the hood.  nice gun!

Only if you drive something other than a Ford.  :chuckle: :chuckle:
I couldn't care less about what anybody says..............

Since your thread is about to get jacked with a heated debate about laws and shooting over the hood I'll say cool gun and congrats on the purchse. Keep looking for those good deals on cases becuase an AR will eat thru a box like nothing. Regarding you shooting on the hood. Looks like you are out and about with plenty of open country and not on a road. Have at it for all I care.

I shoot off of my hood all the time, but I have a disabled hunter placard. :)

I had no idea it was illegal. Every rifle I own has been sighted in over the hood of a vehicle.  :IBCOOL:

Oh ya, very nice set up for sure.

Thanks for the comments everyone....and if anyone has some tips on where to buy the cheapest bulk ammo lemme know.  The way Ive been shooting this is gonna get spendy :chuckle:

Well im not gonna spend the time to investigate myself, but I think that law might apply more to hunting scenarios.  We were not on a road, shooting into a bank at a paper target just for fun.....and you're telling me I cant rest my gun on the hood of my vehicle :dunno:  Guess it wouldnt surprise me in this state.  Regardless I will keep on target shooting over the hood of my rigs.
There are no shortcuts to any place worth going!

Just about everybody has used the hood of a truck as a rest when shooting targets but it is illegal to even rest a loaded rifle against the bumper in this state.

Not sure, but I thought that law only applied while on the maintained portion of a public road.

Can you by chance cite the law that says this Jamieb?
The reason there are so many Ruger upgrades is because they're necessary.
