Hey guys- for a while now, I've been preparing to start a new long-term project on http://ultimatereloader.com - a complete ene-to-end AR-15 build and reloading experience. This won't be your typical AR-15 build as I'm inviting you all to be a part of it.
See this post for the kick-off video:
http://ultimatereloader.com/2010/11/13/ar-mpr-ar-15-project-kick-off/

Here's a breakdown of the project:

Phase I:
Complete from-scratch AR-15 build. This will be an A3 style AR-15 build with 20" match barrel, competition two stage trigger, and more. I'll be posting blogs and HD videos covering the entire experience.

Phase II:
Precision handload development to attain a .5-.75 MOA goal. We'll work through the various stages of performing single-stage style rifle reloading. This will include brass prep, hand weighed powder charging, experimenting with components and dimensions and more.

Phase III:
The final part of this project will entail mass production of .223 / 5.56 ammo. We'll look at popular progressive reloading presses, bullet feeders, case feeders, motorized case prep machines, and more. This will include the latest and greatest from the major reloading manufacturers.

So, if you like the idea of following along, please visit http://ultimatereloader.com/subscribe and sign up today for email or RSS notifications.

I hope you'll join in on the fun! I'm looking forward to reading your comments on my blog, and benefiting from your experience.
Please let me know if there's anything specific you'd like to see!

More details to follow,
Thanks,
Gavin
 
Some updates:
AR-MPR: Goals and Timeline
AR-MPR: Sponsor Highlight: Brownells
AR-MPR: .223 Remington -vs- 5.56 NATO – What’s the skinny?

I'd love to get feedback from you guys on the .223 -vs- 5.56 NATO writeup. Please let me know if I'm missing anything critical here, or have any mis-information in this article.

Next, I think I'll cover A1, A2, A3. Anything else I should cover in planning before we move on towards the build? (complete parts list and complete tools list will be two posts).

Thanks,
Gavin
