Because Ohio has a straight walled cartridge rifle only law for deer hunting, I got the itch to try something different. I already have a couple lever guns and a Ruger .44 carbine, but wanted a 350 Legend upper for my AR-15. I purchased one from Bear Creek Arsenal and received it a couple weeks ago. I ordered a Primary Arms cantilever mount and mounted a Leupold VX-1 that I had laying round. I went to the range yesterday and did some shooting. Although it still has the terrible mil-spec trigger, I was pretty pleased with the results. One bonus is the lack of recoil. Kicks a little less than my .243.

OK- that is a first for me to hear of a 350 Legend and I am even more surprised to see you have it in an AR. Cool. I have a 44 mag lever action B92 with a steel butt plate. Not bad if wearing winter clothes but no 243 in a t-shirt.
Sounds like your rig would make for a great hog gun set up. Enjoy!!

Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

We really could use a "Good Deals" sticky at the top of this sub-forum. There's one on a boating forum I frequent and I am about half broke on account of it.
