What is the difference between a rifle built at home with quality Tier 1 parts, and a rifle (upper/lower) assembled by a Tier 1 manufacturer?
I'm gonna go out on a limb and say "Builder QA".
Everybody wants to play operator, until its time to operate; accordingly, I suspect there will be plenty of "Tier I" ARs laying on the ground if the balloon actually ever goes up.
Any AR that 1. is appropriately gassed, 2. has good magazines, 3. has important bits that can work loose staked...
H4350 is choice 1, 2 and 3
IMR4451 is choice 4
Varget works well with up to 130gr bullets, but you'll give up a little velocity compared to 4350 in a 24"+ barrel.
Bugholes (Southern Precision Rifles) is a GREAT source of barrel blanks.
I buy chambered prefit barrels for my ARC Nucleus (shouldered) and Savage (barrel nut) from Patriot Valley Arms.
Because you’re publicly notifying other interested parties, and the seller, of your intent to purchase. Not a big deal for something that lingers for days and haggling occurs, but for in-demand items I think most appreciate knowing something is “called forlz

Point of order:
223 is absolutely NOT “underpowered for deer”. Use a proper bullet and they kill as ethically as 12 gauge slugs when put into vitals or CNS.
I’ve harvested two Kentucky whitetails with 223s, one using an 80gr Amax and the other a 77gr Nosler Custom Competition…neither deer...
Absolutely nobody should be surprised there are breakthrough infections; we've been told since Pfizer was first EUA'd in December that this would happen.
Breathless local media stories notwithstanding, breakthroughs are very much the exception and not the rule.
I travel for a living; I’ll get any vaccine passport WHO yellow card whatever necessary for international travel where required...especially if it means no hotel quarantines.
Starting that BS domestically anywhere in the 50 states and US territories? NOPE, absolutely not from a government...
Senator Paul’s point about infection-conferred immunity is valid, and unfairly downplayed by public health policymakers.
That said, it doesn’t address the question of when people will believe COVID vaccines are “safe”.
