[QUOTE="Bay Devil, post: 2965808, member: 128334"] I built an AR a couple of years ago with a Rock River Arms .204 upper. Waited a year for the barrel and upper to arrive. Super precise but ended up too heavy for a walking gun for night calling predators. I never use the 204 upper and only ran 150 rounds thru it. I needed a lighter rifle to walk with. I ordered Ruger American in 204 to have the lighter carry rifle. It has a 4” shorter barrel than the AR upper. I assume it should still shoot good as the twist rate on the RAR is 1-12 on a 16.6” barrel. The AR Upper is 20” heavy stainless and fluted. Do you think the length will affect the accuracy? I do not expect shots beyond 200 yards here in SoTx. [/QUOTE]
