Have one AR ready for august coyote time. It is one of the AR'S i won at the Predatormasters hunt in New mexico.It is a DPMS Lightwiegt Praire Panther. I put  Vortex scope on it very clear 2.5 x 10 x 44 Viper. It is a 223 i'm shooting 55gr. vmax. Excited this year going to call alot of states this year. Next is a 6.8  playing with 110 vmax and sierra 110 prohunter. Going to be a great year. Rick

What paint and primer do you recommend for synthetic stocks ???  And does it last , as in not wear off where the gun is handled the most.

I can tell you the 110time pro hunters are impressive on rock chucks.  :chuckle: Missed the only shot i had at a coyote, but hoping to get some terminal information on them soon.

for paint i have used krylon, but if you have the money or know someone who does duracoat you could do that and it would last quite a while same as getting it dip painted. the second two options cost a bit more

I use bowflage. It does great. Would like to get dipped but dont want to take it part. My other two AR's are jamming. I'm use to a reliable bolt action. Taking them in to get fixed this week. I will check out the Krylon fun painting my self. Rick

Why are they jamming?  You aren't running them "dry" are you?  ARs love oil--if you aren't getting oil flecks on your shooting glasses on the first shot, you're not using enough oil!  :dunno:

Get a Winter Trigger Guard for that 6.8!  $15, and in my opinion, the best accessory you can put on an AR!

Too bad you won't be at the egg shoot.  I'll have my two 223 ARs and my 6.8 SPC AR.  :IBCOOL:
