I bought an economy, long range scope based on a couple YouTuber's reviews a couple months ago. When I received it, I was impressed with the apparent build quality so I decided I would build a new long range whole punch to go under it. I was considering my options and leaning toward a Ruger Precision Rifle in .308. It looks to be a great system out of the box and reasonably priced, though still expensive. While down in VA for a family reunion, I found a new bang stick shop and spent a few hours trading lies and drooling on their stock when the proprietor asked me what I would say if he could show me .308ish ballistics from an AR15 platform. He then went on to educate me on the 6mm ARC from Hornady. After a few minutes googling the round, I decided to buy the parts to build a Upper in 6mm ARC. After gathering everything up, the nice young man offered to assemble the upper free of charge. BONUS! I ended up with an Aero Precision upper receiver(no forward assist) and Aero Precision 12.5 M Lock forearm with a Ballistic Advantage 18" barrel, rifle length gas tube and adjustable gas block. Capped with the Silencer Co. QD muzzle device. OH, some nice Trump 2024 graphics on the dust cover. Here it is mounted on my Fight! lower with the 30cal JK suppressor and Magpul bipod.

Good evening fellow riders. My Bro-in-law and I made it back home this afternoon after a trip down to Natchez MS on the Natchez Trace. We got on the Natchez Trace Parkway a little SW of Nashville TN and took 2 days to get to Natchez, with a night in Tupelo MS. We crossed the Mississippi River and stayed in Vidalia Louisiana Thursday night. I have been up and down the Mississippi River hundreds of times in my career as a towboater and driven through Vidalia several times chasing boats down for crew change but never spent the night there. We were blessed to stay in a hotel that was right on the river.

Sad news. I don’t know what to say. I’m sad, I’m angry, I pray for his family.
