[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 162216, member: 8843"] Yep the AR's are no harder to load for than any othe gun , I don't personaly crimp my reloads for mine but my expander button has been worked down a little so the neck tension is realy tight. I reload for a couple of mine one is a 6mm-223 and the other is a 223. All of my guns have a 5.56mm NATO spec chamber and I use a FL 223 reloading die with no problems , but this does cause the brass to wear out pretty quick. I can hit a 5 gallon bucket consistantly with a 14.5" barreled M4 with and Eotech site at 500yds with factory loaded 77gr ammo from black hills , the gun is a factory Rock River Arms. My other AR's will shoot alot better due to their higher power scopes and longer barrels , the one that I built with a 24" 1-7 twist Rock Creek barrel will hold MOA out to 700yds with a 10x scope and shoots under 1/2 moa consistantly to 400yds with hand loaded 80gr SMK's, so yes AR's can be made very accurate DPMS makes some good guns but you can generaly put one togther for less money. , I have a couple buddies that have guns they put together from Model 1 sales and they shoot very well , under MOA [/QUOTE]
