Just wanted to stop in and say hi. I am on a few other boards under the same name so I might look or sound familiar.
I bought a AWC Thundertrap suppressor back in July and is pending right now. After looking around a cool calibers I came by the .300 Whisper and decided I had to have one.
I am currently building one and been reading here lots. My build is going to be using a Lilja 16", 1:8 twist, fluted barrel threaded 5/8 x24 for the suppressor. I am using a DPMS upper an lower. OD Ergo grip, OD Magpul UBR stock, and going to try OD 20rd Pmags (to keep ammo straight from my other AR loads), Rifle length Midwest Industries free floating quad rail with OD Magpul ladder rail covers where needed. I am also hoping to find a reasonable priced Smith Vortex flash hider threaded 5/8 x 24.
Not sure what site I am going to get but I am seriously leaning toward some kind of 4-10ish scope but have not decided for sure.
It looks like I am going to get my barrel about the middle of November so I still have lots of reading up to do.
My next big project is ammo. I have tons of good .223 brass laying around so I am going to give that a try. I have a set of Reding dies coming and I am all set up with RCBS power case trimmer and reloading equipment.
I am hoping to learn as much as I can and get some good pointers where ever I am lacking.
