I gess i should have ben more spacific on my use for it.
I plan on using it for range shooting, just to be able to have some fun now and then.
I am saving up for a more high end Ar typ platform.
to be used when somthing ruged is needed. It's a toss up between the ACR and the Scar16s.
More tourds the ACR.
I figuerd if i needed to upgraid the DPMS. I could replace the compleat Upper.

That'a the beauty of the AR platform. Everysingle piece is replaceable/upgradeable. When parts start to wear on your Sportical you have an excuse to upgrade.

I have the Sportical in .308. On my first range trip I had some feed issues. Sent it back to the factory. Turns out there was a problem with the ejector. They replaced the whole bolt assy. Fuctioned perfectly on my next outing. Got about 50 rds through it, buffer is perfectly weighted, almost no felt recoil, very little movement off target. Another 50 rds and I'll be able to report on accuracy.
