Swampdog, thanks.
When I researched the Baer...they guarantee a 1/2" group @ 100yds. That' s not good. If you' re not in the same hole at 100, something' s wrong.
Colt has the same guarantee.
Bushmaster catalog doesn' t state a guarantee but shows a picture of 3 rnds touching each other, a dime beside the holes and the group is obviously smaller than the dime.
Olympic...I' ve been told by a gunsmith that Oly started out building barrels. Now they build the whole AR, several models. Their website, says the PCR-1 will shoot sub-1/4" groups. They also say that the PCR-8 will shoot sub-1" groups at 100 yds. That' s not good at all.
I' m familiar with the Les Baer quality. I' m just attempting to find the best shooter at the best price. Thanks again Sw..dg.
