Well my buddie and I had a blast at the range Saturday. We were only able to use the 25yrd Sight-in range but it was still fun since none of the rifles we had were ever sighted in. I started with my 7.5" AR15 .223 Pistol with a Red dot using Silver Bear 60gr FMJ - oh man that was fun. Each blast from the muzzle brake warms your face. Not bad as far as accuracy, grouped about 3-4" low left for three full mags that is.... There were a few jams, ftf etc. I'm useing a White Springco with a 5oz H2 and I may try a different buffer. I think the timing may not be optimal. Next was my 16" AR15 in 5.45x39 with a red dot using Silver Bear 60gr FMJ. I had some jams on the 1st mag and then tried the second mag without incident. Accuracy was a 2-3" ragged hole center left from 60 rounds. The hole showed evidence of keyholeing though. The 16" AR15 in 6.8SPC with an AIMPOINT using S&B 110gr FMJ no jams but accuracy was a bit scattered 6" low right from 1 Mag (it was getting dark). And last but by absolutly no means least. My Self Built PrediTOR, AR10 with a Simmons 2.8-10x44 Scope using 147gr DAG MEN surplus FMJ. 1st mag everyjam possible after 1st perfect shot. Took the mag out and tried a second mag - went perfect. My only PIC (I kept the target) is below. That hole is 20 rounds with the one flier to the left. It was getting dark but I unloaded and reloaded the bad mag and just fired at the target backer and they it ran without incident so I dont know what was up with the 1st mag it seems to work now.

As long as the weather holds I'm going to the range Saturday so we will see....I have three other builds I haven't shot yet also. I have a 16" AR15 in 6.8SPC, a 16" AR15 in 5.45x39 and an 7.5" AR15 in 5.56 pistol to test out as well....I've been busy.... ;)

OK I couldnt affort the LaRue so I built one of my own. PrediTAR Started with an Armalite AR10A4CBF Plain 16" 308 Carbine that uses the PMAGS rather then the propriatary Armalite Mags. I removed the plasttc A2 handguard, the railed gas block, the Delta ring and the flash hidder, I reinstalled the barrel nut, and installed a Troy Micro gas block. Added a Troy 13.8" Beta Battle Rail and reinstalled the Flash Hidder. I replaced the stock trigger Guard with a BlackHawk oversized trigger guard and replaced the grip with a UTG Sniper Tactical Grip. Replaced the Milspec Buttstock with a Magpul ASC-L Buttstock. Installed a Magpul AFG1 and Rubber Rail Ladders. Installed a UTG 6-9" BiPOD and a Master Series Simmons 2.8-10x44 Illuminated Riflescope on 1"tactical scoperings I have a disease, it's called Black Rifle Disease, there is no known cure, nay building more and more AR's.... :sniper:

I'm looking for a new club or public range within 1 hr of the Naperville Illinois area. Or if anyone knows of public land that it's legal to shoot on in Northern Illinois that would be even better. I'm currently a member of the Aurora Sportsmans Club but that may be changing due to personal reasons.

There is a lot of talk about the Zombie Apocalypse, well I believe it is here and we are they...Mindless empty bodies in constent search of guns and ammo --Oh well at least we haven't eaten anyone.....:-;
