John, that's a wonderful offer, Thank You!

Let me see what Ruger will tell me - I have a compact stock with the cutout necessary for installment of either AR or AI.... AR being the one I'm interested in for the .223.

There are several threads out there on its viability and how others have done it. Receiver serial # seems to come into play here and mine is later than those. So, I think it'll work.

Install the proper magazine kit, bolt up to action, insert magazine and rock on... all for around $25 - from what I've read on those threads...

The principal reason for doing this will be to gain coal in the magazine over the rotary system... I want to run 68 - 75gr bullets seated out where they belong. Do your AR mag's give you that option?

If not, there's no reason to go to the trouble of switching systems.

Have a great New Year!
