    LaRue Tactical 7.62 PredatOBR

    6.8 SPC II Custom Build Rifle

    There have been countless wildcat cartridges over the years.  One recent trend has been the various efforts to modify the standard AR15 to shoot a heavier, more lethal bullet.  The crazy hype surrounding the 300 Blackout is but one example.  For my money, the 6.8 SPC is the best of the lot for general all-around…

  • Ballistic Advantage 14.5″ Lightweight Middy

    Ballistic Advantage 14.5″ Lightweight Middy

    When Ballistic Advantage sent me their 14.5 inch mid-length Tactical Government profile barrel in 5.45x39mm, I thought I’d found the perfect AR-15 carbine barrel for cheap ammo usage.
