Harry. The 300 is lame, expensive, and rare. If that's his choice then more power to him. He would have been better off with a more suitable caliber for that app. If I wanted an exotic AR I'd build one for .243. I've also seen them in .30 carbine. At least those rounds are easy to come up with. For your range of shooting, one chambered for 9mm would do fine...


That's what he wanted, and I was curious enough to build it for him.
I agree that a 9mm AR-15 would be interesting and cheap to run. But .223
ammo prices are collapsing. I just bought a mess of decent 55-grain for
under 30 cents a round, about what I am now paying for decent .357 MAG,
which, actually, is my favorite round these days. But I already have a
..357 MAG rifle.
