[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 732695, member: 12"] The 1-9 with anything over 62 is questionble depending on the gun. Many will , but not all. I would advise 1-8 IF you plan or want the 75-77 + grain bullets. The 1-8 WILL shoot all bullets you want. IF you plan on building one, better grab your lower asap. they are flying out of the stores and gun shows. The DIY route allows a rifle tailored to your desires and specs. Do not plan on saving money, but you will have a better gun for you. By all means go with a melonited barrel (AR Performance can build you a good upper and has melonited barrel. 18-20" for pure coyote gun Bought two lowers ($125 and $140) yesterday at a gunshow. All of them were gone by 2 PM. Parts kits for lowers were $65. Get these asap if you want to go this route. Colt lowers are what is called large pin, while all others are small pin. this makes a difference with the triggers. Go with small pin lower. RRA makes a good 2 stage trigger that is clean and reasonable. Highly recommend a mil spec buffer tube vs the commercial size. Go with a gas tube vs piston gun for the accuracy. Feel several foreends to see what you like. I just sold one of mine and am finishing building a 16 inch 1-7, with LMT butt, VTAC 13" forend, Geiselle 3 gun trigger, BCM charging handle and carrier. Couple websites: AR15.com( ot of new and used guns and parts at good prices), Bravo Machine Company, AR Performance, Noeveske, JARD triggers, Rock River Arms, [/QUOTE]
