Got the rifle done. Loaded up some rounds and havent made it to the range yet. Stock is being worked for the 1.25 barrel channel to fit. It was a rem 223 sps action.
Is the 223 follower compatible with the 221 case or should I go looking for the follower used for the 221?
I purchased a Barska 10-40 50 30 mm tube with the mildot reticle. Cheap arse scope but with hardly no recoil or shock it should work ok. Didnt want to spend a buttload of money on something that might not even be accurate.
What are you guys getting from 100 to 300 yards in accuracy? Are you hunting with yours in suppressed mode (I know thats illegal but I also know someones done it because its just to much fun)? If so what was the response of the game if more than one animal?
I built mine to hunt hogs and kill multiple hogs before they become wise to the fact that not only do the mosquitoes bite but they now also kill lol.
Looking forward to accuracy tests with it.
