Which brand is that, Bushmaster or DPMS?  They are basically the same, just curious.  I have a DPMS AP4 that is a great shooter.  I haven't tried any factory ammo through it (except mil surplus), but it will shoot a few handloads under 1" for 5 shots.  Haven't tried 10 shot groups yet.

RRA LAR-8 with 16" barrel and no i wouldn't be useing it for hunting, working on 168gr A-Max for that  ;)  and Game King and the VLD.  What you see is all (stock gun) just added a bypod and a scope, i might put a floating forarm on it but she groups so good.  Would you guys free float this gun?

Not at this point in time. Looks like she wants to shoot! Later if you feel the need to try free floating to improve groups -----------maybe.

Haven't really tried that much reloads in it yet!  I'll be trying serria 155MK and the Palma155, like (savage) say she really want to shoot  8) .  The factory loads that i was shooting is 168gr serria MK hpbt.
