I've never built an AR before and I don't want to build a whole new rifle. I figured I would build just another upper to slap on the lower whenever I wanna change it. I don't wanna spend more than $400. I want something for a somewhat longer range. Obviously nothing too far considering it's only .223. Maybe around 100 yards. Any tips on what to think about starting out? One of the big reasons for this is for learning purposes so nothing too expensive.
