My bro in CA finally got bit by the EBR bug. While he is building a CA compliant lower, I found a good deal at Midway on a match upper for him. Its a Wilson match 20 inch SS, 1:9, .920 dia barrel on a DPMS upper. The scope is a new Lope' from RickBin. Tomorrow, I'll start to break it in with some fmj. It will be used as a varmint shooter with 52-69 (hopefully) grain match, BT, and V-Max ammo. The lower is mine with a 1.5 # jewell trigger. ![[Linked Image]](http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a351/Kirtmc/rossar1.jpg)

neat, what is the green sticker for? Mr Yuck ?
Whatever you are willing to put up with, is exactly what you will have.
When your ship comes in. ... make sure you are willing to unload it.
PAYPAL, sucks and I will never use them again. I recommend you do the same.

"...what is the green sticker for?" Just to get you to ask the question of course! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" /> When there are several rifles in a rack at the range that look simular, I have the one with a green sticker. Like my wife likes a green ribbon on her bags at the airport baggage claim. It does look a little stubby and chubby, don't it.

I took it out this morning and broke it in with 20 rounds of M855. Cleaned after each of 10 rounds and then after every 10 rounds per DPMS break-in instructions.
The M855 shoot into its usual 1.5-2 inch group at 100 yards.
9 rounds of Georgia Arms re-man 55g Nosler BT made a diagonal upward string 3 inches long for some reason.
9 rounds of Black Hills re-man 60g V-max grouped with most rounds touching as did 9 rounds of factory Federal 69g match.
The barrel showed a lot of promise. I'm just going to have to shoot it somemore.

I'm impressed with the Black Hills re-man'ed stuff. So is another guy who uses it in his AR from around here. Our Sportsman's Warehouse has not had the stuff in or in good selection for a while. They had about 6 varieties in ample quantity of the stuff last winter, but now they are completely out. I think I better call and see what's up with that! I won't handload for what the 52 bthp used to sell for.
We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth?
Immersing oneself in progressive lieberalism is no different than bathing in the sewage of Hell.
