[QUOTE="ez bake, post: 970635, member: 229"] I think the point is that with that price, the barrel should be gold-lined. That's a lot of money and a lot of waiting not to be a premium rifle by all standards. The 1/9 twist thing doesn't bother me as much - I'd love to have seen a 1/8 twist even, but if a barrel is high enough quality, has a good bore and is made right, 1/9 does just fine with some of the 69 and 75gr rounds - I wouldn't go above that necessarily, but whatever. Words cannot describe how over hyped this rifle was for damn near 3 years and they put out an over-priced weapon lacking several fundamental qualities of a weapon worthy of winning .gov contracts? That sucks the big one. I'll continue to buy Magpul's stuff, but I'm actually disappointed in Remington/Bushmaster/whoever just bought all those gun companies, enough to buy elsewhere if I can.
