MagnumBob: Thanks for that tip/info. I had not thought of (visualized!) that. I imagine only going to the bench two or three times in whats left of my lifetime (I will be 74 soon) to adjust for the ammo I have the most of and maybe a time of two with the VarmintOffspring. I have enough of the 20's (two) and was offered two 30 round Mag-Pull (sp?) polymers late last night when a friend from the coast offered them to me. Maybe get 2 or 4 more 30's and that should fill the utilitarian type gun case that came with my Rifle.
Antelope sniper & MagnumBob: I did not know there was such a thing as a ten (10) shot AR mag. Thanks for that tip. No wind here today but it was 15 below zero again this morning with a high or +2 degrees here today. I am antsy to shoot but will wait for somewhat better conditions. Gunshow in Idaho is even looking iffy coming up. Thanks again all. Hold into the wind VarmintGuy

Suggest using a good lube like Slip2000 with it. Makes a big difference.

You guys might laugh at me but damned if Big Stick wasn't right on the nailhead about mags, those ASC mags are the tits. The stainless and the aluminum ones , well built and they flat work fine. Mb Stick is right about a lot of schidt, if you can understand what he's saying.. Yep. True that. A lot of what he's preached and been 100% right on about skids right across some of the flatter heads here .

The 5's are got to have item here in SD if you want to use your AR on big game. The rules and yeah they work great for group shooting also . Mb

10 or 20 rd Pmags are all I use from the bench. The 10 rd are great for big game hunting.

Midway currently has some of the IMI Razorcore ammo that uses the Sierra 77 gr. Match King bullets. They ain't cheap.

Only wanted 30's when I first started with the AR. Bigger is better, right?
But soon learned that for my uses, I didn't need 1 1/2 boxes of ammo on board. And they stick out. Bought one 20, just to try it.
30's have their place, and we have acquired a few more. 20's are much preferred.

Same here, I would trade 30's for 20's & 10's. I wonder if lancer makes a 10 rounder? They make great 20 rounders, nice to see yer ammo in da mag.
I would have got him too but a Dad Blam snow flake hit me in da eye....
