[QUOTE="REDHEAD, post: 486705, member: 15277"] [I][FONT=Comic Sans MS][SIZE=2]I am a Bushmaster fan , My first, Varminter 24" barrel . It is not chrome lined. The thing I do like about the Bushmaster is, they use 4150 chromemoly. My understanding is 4160 Moly is Gov. spec for machine gun barrels. It doesn't need a big heavy barrel to keep it shooting straight like the DPMS. I purchased a Bush- ORC ( does have a chrome liner) liked it very much . The main fault with the ORC is its single stage trigger. I would recommend this as a basic building block as I did. I love the M4 - 16" barrel vs 24". I do not find my Varminter that difficult to carry, 10#s with scope. Just a little too gangly . I believe the most important thing with the AR platform is mounting the scope as low as possible. I had to remove the foam sleeve on the skeleton stock to get my head down. Now it shoots like a bolt gun. I believe in lots of oil in the action and chamber flags.
