    Picked up my new AR-15 from Doug (10Xclean) from GC Wednesday,, WOW,, I am not worthy. I took it to AGC to break and site it in,,, WOW,, just F-ing WOW. I was pretty much shooting off sand bags,, with "junk" ammo and pretty much shooting MOA or so. SO,,, after putting about 60rnds through it I decided to try a 5 rnd string standing,, no coat,,, and put results that the Garand could come no where close.

    AR is a RRA NM2 upper,, Stag lower with RRA parts,, Thanks Doug!!!

    it is the cheapest ammo you can buy and the casing eats up some extractors and other components around the chamber since it is not brass. AKs love it, but I was just kinda joking with the guys new AR thread asking if he is using this trashy ammo.

    Oh ok,,, by "junk" ammo I meant non match grade. I have a bunch of Federal Brass case boxer primed ammo I am useing to get seed stock for brass

    nice AR THier!

    What's the barrel twist, and what bullet weights were you using?

    (I can't believe I'm curious about these things now, and posting at 4 something in the morning... is there a 12 step program? Just Kidding, this is my family approved hobby.) :)

    1 in 8,, this is shooting commercial 55gr ammo. I am useing this for the brass to reload 70gr match bullets
