I am a long time shooter but a total newbie when it comes to the AR platform. I have been thinking of purchasing and or building one as of lately. Building will be more like it as my wife thinks this is a waste of money so it is easier for me to buy a part here and a part there.
Here are my intended uses for the rifle:
1) Would like very good to excellent accuracy out to around 500-600 yards from the bench.
2) Nice handling rifle for coyote hunting at variable distances.
3) As a last resort handy to maneuver in close quarters is needed as home protection.
I know there are millions of configurations out there but I am seeking information from experienced rifleman on a quality configuration. Also I am not looking to buy the best, just good enough.
I just do not want to buy the cheapest option and regret it down the road.
Thanks for any and all information gentlemen.
