    Mate, they are brilliant wee rifles. A lot more performance than on paper would suggest.

    Yes most AR15 calibers are more for close range bush stalking or goat control which we have plenty up here. Not too many .270 cal AR type rifles yet but they do exist

    If you really wanted to. You could seel the barrel and bolt. And get a 6.5 grendel barrel and bolt. People have shout goats out at 650 metres with that calibre

    Well that will put a smile on ya dial and take your mind off you mit, Ryan. I do have to say that I don’t like the look of full length rifle scopes on an AR15 but that is just my personal view. Each to his own though, there are shitloads out there. Convert the bugger to E mate, there is something about dumping thirty in a hurry that makes a man a happy wee beastie.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Its a nice rifle that SIG 516. In fact that very rifle was inspirational... it caused me to buy an AR15. I would have bought that one had he told me he was selling it back in November.

    Enjoy Ryan, its a very nice bit of kit and I can attest to it's accuracy.
