Slight hijack, but does anyone have opinions on Palmetto State Armory completed rifles? I had been watching their site over the last few weeks and ordered one at the end of June. It has been shipped and should arrive at the Academy here in Collierville any day now. Their website shows several in stock now

I've owned one for a couple years now. Excellent rifles for the price. I have had no issues and would recommend them to anyone looking at getting a quality rifle at a good price.
A buddy ordered 2 and got them in yesterday. Hasn't got to shoot them yet but he's impressed with the fit and finish, smoothness of the action and clean drop of mags from the magwell.

Scoob, I’ve found that barrels act as individuals and a twist rate is a good starting point but not gospel. I’ve seen 1:9 AR barrels that love the heavy stuff and 1:7 barrels that like the light stuff. You just try a combination until it finds what it likes. Even my Aero AR10 prefers 150gr Barnes TTSX handloads over the heavy stuff.
Their 308 rifles are quite accurate. I’ve sighted a couple in for friends and was amazed at the accuracy with factory ammo. One was shooting sub MOA with Remington Core Lokt, the other rifle with Federal Fusion. The 308s have magwell issues running Pmags sometimes but the reliability and accuracy are great.

My opinion would be to buy a completed upper and BCG/handle and the next day a completed lower. If you buy all of those in the same transaction, you incur the 11% federal excise tax on completed rifles.
