Hello all,
Me and my father are building 2 AR15's one is for plinking and defense in an M4 carbine style in 5.56 NATO 1-9 (the $299 AR stoner A3 upper from midway), the other is for target on a budget and hunting his criteria is he wants to reach out 800yds (not for hunting just target) I want to go with a .223 REM barrel in 1-7 twist 20" or more barrel and preferably it comes with a matched bolt. I want a dedicated .223rem so I can develope a reload with heavy bullets particularly these new monolithic bullets. Is there any recommendations my head is swimming looking through the options, also just to reiterate I'm looking for just the barrel and hopefully matched bolt so the rest of the upper can be cheap from sorced sales and what not.
Thank you,
Lokichoki
