Complete Target 20" AR in 5.56/.223?

[Road_Clam]

My gun club purchased 4 RR match uppers for promoting our junior marksmanship programs, outstanding shooters. About 1 MOA barrels with the typical 69 or 77 gr match ammo shooting benchrest.

Improvement from free floating. The windage clicks became much more consistent.
Before the float, i would shoot a group and the shot would tend left out of the 10 ring and into the 9 and 8 ring. So.....I would correct and click over just two clicks (on a NM sight). the group would move the the other side of the 10 ring. A lot of movement.
That stopped after the barrel float. Groups are much more centered. If there are fliers, it is me not the gun. Fliers, and I do shoot them, are not mostly windage fliers from sling and hand pressure on the barrel.

OP Here: I have decide to upgrade and limit my parameters to a complete National Match rifle or at least complete NM uppers and lowers. Thanks.
