Scott,

Welcome to the forum! I'm another Oregon guy and live up in Salem. Been toying with a custom AR-10 that was built by George Gardner at G.A. Precision and love it. Before this I was a bolt gun guy and M1A/M14 user.

Enjoy you new rifle, the forum, and that slick lookin' .22 of yours. We look forward to your posts.

Hey, new guy from Oregon!

Here's a picture of my G.A. Precision AR-10 .308. It shoots right along with my bolt guns.

Scott,

The scope is no longer on the rifle. I've been playing with a Nikon Monarch 6.5 X 20 1" tube. I like it very much. It's got 1/8 minute clicks, but it's not a big deal. It tracks very well. Optics are every bit as good as the Leupold, IMHO.
I'll probably be mounting a Luppie MK IV M1 LR 3.5 X 10 w/mil-dot reticle soon.
Mount is the LaRue SPR-S I discussed earlier.
Barrel is a 20" Schneider 1:11 1/4" twist .308. Flash hider is the standard M-16 style, but sized for a .308.

Scary accurate is the best way to describe the combination.

I may change the grip to a more conventional ambidextrous style and go to a mag-pul MPR style stock, but that's in the future. The VLTOR stock has been very stable and quite usable for a collapsible style stock.

Hope this helps.

Gents,

Thanks for the kind words about the rifle. It's a winner which says a lot coming from a real M1A/M14 fan.
