Wouldn't the build be close to the cost of a Mini?The SCRs are really bloody neat, but also really bloody expensive lol
That really depends on the cost and quality of the upper and barrel. The build I had priced out with a SCR lower came to $1300 but I was also dreaming pretty big. For a more standard upper then yes they are comparable in price especially when you factor in the cost of a handful of magazines for each rifle.Wouldn't the build be close to the cost of a Mini?
Oh no. Wouldn't have posted if my mind was settled. I keep an open mind.Although, it seems to me from your post, you’ve already pretty much made up your mind.
Ok, I'm sold that I don't need the 10... but the 350 Legend has my attention. I think it suits my needs better than the Grendel.A 6.5 Grendel AR-15 would likely better suit your applications at lower cost than an AR-10 in 6.5 creed.

You gotta work a lot harder to offend me!Cool! You should go with what feels rights to you.
BTW, I didn’t mean that comment in any derogatory way. Rather as a possible subconscious thought on your end. Just clarifying.

But I can be convinced otherwise.
Yeah, ol'Chuck drops some lead on their axx in that opening scene. There was also the one where he shot all of the berries from a bush was not there?
I vote 30-30 lever gun if there can only be one. Besides that, in the next regime, should it take place, they will come knocking for the "assault" rifles and you will not be able to say the AR was lost. They will fine, hold up the income tax refunds, withhold SS and MC, liens on property and jail time and in general make it impossible not to comply but a lever gun as American as apple pie and single action revolvers, surely not . And we will all dutifully hand them over (second amendment) just as we were banned from church (first amendment), or public assembly (first amendment) and closed out businesses (first, tenth and the Declaration of Independence, "Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness"), and forced to put on those pitiful rags (first amendment).
Good stuff!I have been shooting the .357 Max for longer than I have the Grendel, and a couple other 350 Legend analogies, but have only worked with two actual 350 Legends so far. Were I only to have ONE of the two, I would have a Grendel over the Legend. The two have similar kinetic energy at the muzzle, but obviously the Grendel is flatter shooting and holds energy better. The heavier bullets of the Legend have greater momentum up close, but lower sectional density (considerably) such the penetration and game killing potential at short range is relatively an even horserace. At any extended range, the Grendel’s superior aerodynamics retains energy and drives greater penetration, so getting any air under the bullet strongly favors the Grendel. Either work for 0-200 yards, but the 350 Legend is more of a super-magnum Handgun Cartridge while the Grendel is a watered down rifle cartridge.
Maybe more importantly - I’m not sure I’m convinced a Legend can or will do anything which a 44mag couldn’t do, other than cycle in an AR-15. So in one regard, if a lever action 44mag was a good option for you, an AR in 350 is also a good option. But, if a Grendel AR is also a good option, then I’d personally say (as I did above) the Grendel is a better option than either the Legend or 44mag. For everything up close, it’s trading nickels, for anything farther, the Grendel exceeds the others - and generally, if I count something “as good as the other, except for when it’s better,” simply as “better.”
She'll be grabbing her short barreled 12 ga pump!assuming, of course, that you expect her to be able to use it in a SD/HD situation
I'm not as worried about them taking as me buying.Won’t happen without some serious turmoil this country can’t handle. It sounds like you are justifying the 30-30 because they come for the ARs but not the Lever actions? You think I’ll give up my ARs, magazines, anything? Not without a fight. They will have to kill me. Which I’m sure they will. But I won’t go alone. And I’m not even some crazy Right Wing, tinfoil hat wearing conspiracy theorist! What do think these militia groups across the country will do? So just sit tight and do nothing. But if this all happens, remember my name.
I don’t need a building to worship The Lord. Breaking into your home, armed and ready to take your life is a different matter.
What happened to that tree? Nice rifle.I like my marlin 336, but i wanted a scope.
Here is my solution to your dilemma:
View attachment 939966 A lightweight, compact little rifle with pretty decent thump. A good shooter too.
I have 5rd, 10rd, and this 20rd (mini thirty) magazine.
