For years I have been looking at building an AR. Since I wanted a basic rifle and not an ultra high performance tack driver with all of the bells and whistles the economic issues were a wash. in other words the cost of building vs buying an off the rack rifle were about the same for a basic AR in 223.
If I find a "need" for an ar in a larger caliber, Then I will probably build one in a 25 caliber. If the action cannot be adapted to the 257 Roberts, I will probably build a rifle based on a 243/25 wildcat cartridge which I saw about thirty years ago.
