Did op get rid of the rock river with the 24” barrel?

I've only swapped barrels & bolts more than once, and have had 0 issues.

5.56
this was just the feedback i was looking for.. since brass is scarce, and i have plenty of 5.56 brass/pwder/primers, i'll first reload some 70 speer, and 75 bthp i have. i have two ar's 1:8, so that will be easy. i'll def. be looking for some grendel stuff in the future. sportsmans guide has a couple uppers, now. popped a couple last monday w ear shots.

An upper and BCG swap takes 30 seconds... if you’re slow.
Also swapping barrels you have to change out your optics and rezero. Swapping uppers, you can keep your optics zerod

When someone says barrel swap, I have always assumed those things were taken for granted.
