"Be sure you break it in proper don't just go out and put a bunch of rounds through it shootn up the hillside!"

I thought that was a proper break in.

I only have a picture of my N4 Light Recce Basic.  I also have a Bushmaster A2 Target.

Can you really see trough that scope?, seems your front sight is just a little bit in the way of any kind of sight picture!

I know it's not mine, but I want one of these pupy's

LCW AR-15
If your first reaction upon seeing this creation from Lauer Custom Weaponry is, “That doesn’t look stock,” congratulate yourself on your powers of observation.

Yes, Lauer can build you a rifle with an arrow gun attached that fires bolts with a .22 blank. And, yes, you can get one with a custom blood-spattered pattern that shows off your zombie-horde-fighting cred.

Underneath the unusual bolt-ons is a reliable .223 that is ready to take on any worm-eaten monstrosity you might face—or the zombie stage during your next 3-gun match. The compensator, from Bushmaster, does a good job of keeping the rifle on target, while the 3.5X ACOG gives you a clear and bright aiming point.

If you think the undead are scary, wait till you see the tiny cluster of holes this gun produces after emptying the 30-round magazine. [ $1,895, optics not included;

That was in a funny article on Outdoorlife.com this week. Looks like it would weigh a ton but the other pic of it had the 100 rd beta mag with a blood spatter duracoat finish that looked pretty cool.

-Wildfire

Thanks,

The WSSM is nowhere near where it needs to be on accuracy.  I'm gonna try some tubbs final finish bullets and if that doesn't fix it I'll send it back to the factory for another.

Replacing the .223 upper because I am on a long range kick and need a heavy barreled bolt gun, just can't afford it so something's gotta give.  That load that produced the .6 groups is a 40gr at only 2900fps, so pretty substandard for coyotes IMO.  I plan to get another one just like it later down the road, because I really like it for an assault-type platform.  Much more reliable and accurate than my ol' Colt M4.  Also plan to get a 24" varmint type upper in .223 as well, for coyotes at shorter range.

shane
Title: Re: Lets see your AR
Post by: WildfireArcher on March 11, 2010, 09:18:47 PM
thats awesome man. Did you ever use that RRA entry tactical for yotes? i just got a bushmaster m4 16" carbine and am kind of second guessing myself if it was a good choice for an AR platform for coyote hunting. What do you think? i love the gun, i just am not seeing very many guys using the m4 carbines for predators...

Title: Re: Lets see your AR
Post by: shaneman153D on March 11, 2010, 09:40:00 PM
Yeah it really is lacking in the velocity dept, that's why I'm going to get a long barreled version.  Accurate as hell though.  I shot 4 coyotes with that 40gr load and only recovered one.  That one was shot through the back and out the chest, and I got an assist from my buddy with his .243.  It should be noted that most of the shots here are 250yds+.  I think it would do fine in an area with trees.
Title: Re: Lets see your AR

Post by: shaneman153D on March 13, 2010, 05:43:33 PM
Should be fine with a decent load.  I know XM193 will do 3200fps out of a 16" but that's FMJ.

Anybody ever use tracer rounds?

Sure. You load one tracer per magazine....about number five from the bottom....so you have a heads up to reload soon when SHTF... I keep alot of my mags loaded this way...
