AR/Tacticool Thread of Awesome! (AR Info here!)

So I'm wanting to start my first SBR and I was going to go with a NFA trust to get the paper work taken care of. Who has experience with this route and what advice could be offered? Does anyone know a experienced lawyer in the Weatherford/Fort Worth area that does trusts like this?

I just used Cole Bryan off I-20 and Hulen street in Ft. Worth for my trust. He charges $250 and mine was done in about 30 minutes. I called several other people that are known for doing NFA trust and they were a couple of days to more than a week.

I bought a Colt 6933 SBR and 7.62 YHM titanium can.

Optics for 300BLK:

uses...pigs & other critters - daytime shooting & night time with red light (mostly night time). Home defense IF the intruder makes it past 2 mags worth of 9mm Winchester Rangers

Have big ol 3x9 mil dot on it now and it weighs a ton. Want to lighten the load (a bunch).


1) Go back to a simple red dot (SPAC/Strikefire) with say a 3x magnifier for longer shots?
2) Smaller scope (i.e. Nikon P223 with carbine reticle)?

I'm on a Coca-Cola budget, so under 2 benjamins.

I thought the LTR was a 20" barrel?

[BOWERIK]

Remington 700 LTR with the barrel threaded and an AAC 51T muzzle brake installed

[mesquitecountry]

I ordered 2 51t AAC blackout flash hiders on accident. One in 5/8x24 and the other in 1/2x28. Just want to get back what I paid for them. 65 a piece. Let me know if you are interested.

Calling all AR enthusis...

Which one would you recommend?

6.8 SPC
6.5 Grendel
300 Blackout

Here are somethings I am looking for:

AR Platform
Accurate out to 500 meters
Ammo readily available (I may eventually reload but not to start out

This gun will not be suppressed and will be used to hunt with (hogs and deer). It will have plenty of rounds of put through it on a regular basis as it will be my new primary go to gun.

I have done the preliminary research but want to get some opinions as to which way you would go. I don't have unlimited money resources but at he same time I do not want to go cheap.

Thanks in advance

I'm sure you can hit a target with the 300 Blackout out to 500+ meters but I would trust the section density of the 6.5 and the 6.8 would yield more reliable results.

At 500 Yards(don't have meters) Here is where the stand:
6.5mm/123gr 1805 fps with 889 ft/lbs
6.8SPC/120gr 1414 fps with 617 ft/lbs


This is from Hornady Ballistics chart http://www.hornady.com/assets/files/...nterSpread.pdf

If you were to go down to the local sporting good store you would have a better chance of finding the 6.8 SPC, but the 6.5mm can be ordered online and delivered to your door so it's not exactly rare.

I wholeheartedly agree with chasing bacon. If you are going to regularly hunt or shoot at 500 yards then the 6.5 Grendel is the ticket. Hunting ammo is a bit difficult to come by but there are plenty of folks that will load it for you.

6.8 SPC for 350 yards and in purely because of better ammo availability.

500 would be a stretch for a Blackout and suppressed is where it shines best.

[mesquitecountry]

I say this all the time but....

Last AR build for a while 16" 300 BO complete gun I assembled. All from Palmetto. JP trigger, Mark AR scope with Burris Fast fire and Larue mount, KAC Ras rail system.
