Here's what I have: Surplus Ammo and Arms A3 Upper, 1/8 Black Hole Weaponry SS barrel, MOE handguard $429 Surplus Ammo and Arms Lower, 4 position folding stock, standard grip $159 plus $20 FFL Right under $600 for a quality upper and aluminum lower. I wanted an M4 carbine length with A3...

I may have to talk to the local gun shop and see if they have the tools for installing a free float handguard. It would cost me more in the tools to install than it would be worth to try install it myself.

I'm looking at ditching my single rail gas block for a quad rail and the UTG looks just about like all the others except it's half or less on the price. Does anyone have DIRECT experience with them? I like my MOE handguard but want a place to mount a laser that was given to me so I think this...

Nothing wrong with taking that shot, IF and a big IF, you are up to the task. Almost any caliber from 25-06 on up can make that shot, including the 270 WSM. The biggest thing with long range shooting is learning to dope the wind. I'd suggest some flagging tape to be able to judge what the...

Since you are somewhat concerned with recoil, check out this recoil table. Notice it has the gun weight, bullet weight and muzzle velocity as well as recoil in ft/lb and recoil velocity. http://www.chuckhawks.com/recoil_table.htm This might give you an idea of what you'd be looking at...

One thing you may want to consider investing in is a Leadsled for extended shooting sessions, regardless of caliber that you select. Any gun that's over 7 1/2lbs, shooting a projectile less than 150 gr, at less than 2800 fps is going to be fairly soft recoiling. While I'm not a huge fan of the...

My only use for them would be for practice to make sure I am proficient and in the event that my Primary Arms red dot crapped out on me. Like I said, this is a range use and limited hunting weapon.

I've recently done a ton of research on low budget AR optics because I was looking for something for my A3. If you are looking strictly for A2 style optics, I'm not sure what to recommend. From what I have found, Primary Arms seems to have serviceable low budget optics for AR rifles. Anything...

Thanks for the comments, I was concerned if they were a total POS that should be avoided or not. My rail gas block is lower than the receiver height so it would definitely take a taller front sight.

Under $1000 is easy...lots of choices out there. I'm going to suggest a different caliber than .243 though for the ability to shoot heavier bullets. I feel that the .260 Rem or 7mm-08 are about as perfect of a deer caliber that you can get. Another good caliber that is harder to find is the...

Snakeman, did you happen to try and free float the forend on those XL7s? They have two pressure pillars right near the end of the forend that when removed, usually help increase the accuracy.

I second the Marlin XS-7. It has a better trigger and better fit and finish than the Stevens. They really are a bargain for what you get. Boyds also makes stocks for the Marlin XL/XS-7s so that is a non-issue.

The 6mm Rem and 257 Roberts were two great cartridges that were both killed off by the 243...the 257 has stuck around a little better than the 6mm though. A shame really...

Check out the Burris Fullfield IIs that Natchez has on sale. IMO a 2-7x35 would be about perfect for the Mosin. It's not known as a highly accurate rifle in the first place. Target turrets on a Mosin is not needed and for what you pay for them you'd be better off spending the extra on ammo.
