Hey folks,
I just picked up my new DDM4V5, my first AR. I got it with an Aimpoint PRO because the optic was on sale by serendipity when I did the initial paperwork for the V5 . However, the V5 came without iron sights. I have also been reading about 1/3 vs. absolute CoW, and am unsure how to proceed. Should I leave the PRO on, and line up the sights with it, or take the PRO off, get the sights I want, then remount the PRO and line it up with the iron sights? This is what I am leaning towards.
Second, the seller recommended PMC and Federal as the best ammo choices. Any opinions? He says these performed a little better and burned a little cleaner. He also stated NEVER use frangible, ever. He likened it to shooting sandpaper down the barrel. I would like to stick with 5.56, which is the chambering, but it seems harder to come by than .223, and more expensive.
Looking for wisdom from those with the experience and the know.
