Allright, here's what comes to mind: I guess in a round a bout way what I am looking for in this thread is the means to justify in my mind cutting my 16" AR whisper (which I'm not currently happy with the accuracy of) down to a 10" or so SBR and still be able to effectively put rounds on target with a low power variable optic or a fixed 1x dot. Effective results for me with the weapon in this configuration is about MOA, maybe + a little, accuracy and the ability to deliver a killing shot to predators and varmits, and to punch paper. I realize I prefaced my statement with my accuracy issues and still wish to have a roughly MOA weapon, but I've not given up on it yet and am currently working on resolving the accuracy issues.
I think it has taken me a while to realise that, to be even more brutally honest, I'm starting to look at my AR whisper as more of a range play toy, and now have more interest in building up a bolt gun in .300 Whisper for accuracy. Like I said, I'm in effect looking for justification spend the $$$, I think I mainly want the reassurance in my mind that I'm not making an error.
Thank you all for responding to my thread and humoring me, I do appreciate your input.
edit: I do believe that jimcrowels weapon in the pics section is just about what I'd like to end up with.
