.223 Varmint Upper Build advice...
I have been following the other thread on the Ar build, and didn't want to parasite off of it...
I like the new Rock River ATH Hybrid Tactical/Varmint rifle they just came out with, but...
... I think I am going to try to build a varmint upper for my Rock River 16" tactical I now have...Thanks to my win of a TFF drawing a few months back I have a DPMS free float tube and low profile gas block...
..so if I figure right I just need to buy a stripped upper and a barrel and gas tube and I am in business, right?
I will check out the Detroit uppers as discussed in the other thread, but am also interested in the DPMS high rise flattop I saw at Brownells, but I guess I need the most advice on barrels...
I am interested in building either a 18" or 20" stainless heavy bull or fluted tube chambered in either .223 Rem or .223 Wylde. I quess I should go for .223 Rem as it will be a varmint/Prairie dog rifle, shooting mostly match ammo or reloads, so I want the best groups, and my regular upper can handle the cheap NATO stuff since it's chambered in 5.56 NATO.
Any suggestions?
