I purchased a Varmint rifle kit a few weeks ago from model 1 sales, it has everything but the stripped lower, I got the 24 inch fluted chrome moly barrel, picked up an Anderson stripped lower at my local Cabelas yesterday, $43.00 plus tax. I have been shooting it using the lower from another of my AR's, only issue is that the cases are ejecting at about two o clock and observing small dents on the cases, I noticed that the buffer in the pars kit is much longer than the buffer in the lower that I am currently using and I think that buffer is made for a long barrel. After only putting nine rounds through it i fired an experimental group using my plinking load, 24.4 gr H 335 55gr fmj bullet, group measured .409, cleaned it and fired about 20 more rounds, ten cleaned it again removing all the copper fouling, same bullet with 25.2 gr Benchmark, four shot group measured .346. I also purchased and mounted a Vortex crossfire 6x18 scope, look out coyotes.
