Brass is beautiful! ;-)

As requested from my earlier thread, and promised, here are some pictures for you:

Stag Model 3 plus/RRA varmint upper - 20" stainless steel bull barrel, delivered on Friday from JoeBob Outfitters as promised

I treated myself to an early Christmas gift to help with the RRA upper and got some Lapua Match brass on sale at Brownells

First range visit - unfortunately it was an indoor range,so limit was 25 yards. When I get the time, will travel to the boonies (one way is 60+ miles) to shoot at 100 yards or more

I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised that the AR 's POI was as close to center as it was, considering that when I mounted the red dot scope, all I did was visually check with the bore center, and adjust accordingly.

Also, took advantage of some Cyber Monday deals and ordered a Leupold 3-9 scope and mount for the new RRA upper. I'm a happy camper!

Looking good. MY range is 3 miles away by drive and about 1.5 miles as the crow flies. 60 miles one way is a pretty good haul.

So, only 3 miles to the range? Well, Doug, I hope you have a spare bedroom, because as you read this I'm packing and heading out to move in with you!

My closest indoor range that allows rifle shooting is about 12 miles, and just opened recently. Thank goodness for that, as the other indoor range I use only allows pistols. As mentioned earlier, I unfortunately do have to travel just about 60 miles one-way to get to the closest outdoor range. What a bummer, especially with the higher than average gas prices in my neck of the woods.
