Well, it's time to sell my current upper and build one that better fits my needs. I currently have a 20" version of the RRA varmint. I've put less than 60 rounds through it total in the last 5yrs. I bought it, zero'd it then took it on about half a dozen days of coyote hunting and haven't used it in years.
Honestly, i'm just getting old. That thing is heavy for me to lug around to stands. I figure it's time for a 4 rail flat top med. countour fluted upper. That should lower the weight a bit. I just can't figure out which length barrel to get. 16 or 18 or 20. I'm usually shooting up to about 250 yards max. (I'm not the best shooter out there.) My current upper is 10x more accurate than i am. I can find 16's and 20's all over the place and only about 2 18's. If i get a 16 or 18 inch barrel, will i be giving up too much accuracy out to 250 yards?
Can't seem to make my mind up and wanted your guys real life experience and opinions.
Secondly, where would you suggest i purchase one at. Been looking on DEZ and J&T sites. They seem to be the most price competitive.
Thanks guys.
